Oppinion on this Luftwaffe Fire Brigade Visor Cap

[klinger]

Now that looks more like the right colour.....

yes my cam is crap, what do you think now, i know i kill your nervs, sorry

[Adrian Stevenson]

If that is the true colours, I think you are OK. Photos really need to be taken out of doors in natural daylight for best results.

Still not keen on the insignia and cap cords. But Luftwaffe NCO's quality insignia can be found. A leather chinstrap and cap buttons could also be found.

Cheers, Ade.

Ade where the piping is damaged at the crown it looks as if its a plastic beading , is that right, only i thought that it should be a tight twisted string?

no its not plastic, there is a hole in it, in the visor is a ring out of metal, this is what you can see, the ring is removabel and i think called a hut bügel, ther is for shure no plastic

[davejb]

No sorry perhaps i didnt make myself clear, the red/pink piping has a split in it,,the white internal piece, what is that made of, i know the steel crown ring is removable, bu that piping piece shouldnt be, its usually sewn in with the cloth piping covering it

it is out of metal cloth covered too
is that whath you mean
i checkt every pice ther is no plastic

[klinger]

what you can see from the outside is the metal ring and this thing

[stonemint]

Return it. It is a post-war visor made by Pekuro. It is not a LW fire-brigade cap. If the body is dark blue, it is simply post-war Feuerwehr. (The body looks black to me in the pics, and if so, it is Bergbaudienst [mining].

True LW Feuerwehr visors are very hard to find, and have a wool band instead of velvet.

[Thebryguy]

The band looks like velvet as well. Think it should be wool
