Your time is coming.[/QUOTE]
Please wait till I win the lottery , before you decide to sell off your wonderful "fetid woolens" . On second thought don't sell , I miss your posts too much . This site wouldn't be the same without you ! Also just a quick question , what type of bags do you use for storage of your headgear ? I don't have many , but i don't want them eaten .
Cheers Chris
I think if I HAD to choose....hmm...the SS stuff is nice, but I've been there-done that.......for WWII era..., as Patrick said, perhaps a nice worn but still good condition German KM Named U-Boat Ace Captain's white top(with the accompanying Blue cover as well, of course). As for Other nationalities....maybe something more Exotic like an Croatian Ustashi Officer's visored field hat. Or perhaps a Hungarian Szálasi Officer's visor.... And Other time periods? There isn't enough Room here to list the Christmas shopping list I'D pick! lol

Too many SS hunters out there to contest with... So i'll go for the Luftwaffe M41 "Hermann Meyer" with neck protection! This will do just fine for me...
FB do you by any chance own any of these????
p.s. If an early black SS cap appear in my doorstep i would gladly invite it in for a cup of coffee ofcourse!
I reckon that my choice would be a Luftwaffe general's visor cap, with all bullion insignia, no celleon. I thought about a white top version, but I actually prefer the regular cap. I wouldn't turn down a white top, though!
