WW2 German Visor Cap ( medical) Theater made Eagle ?

[tony75]

Hello

I have a visor cap that belonged to a doctor, but the name is missing.
What does the ARZT mean?

The cap has a unusual bullion eagle, theater made?

Thank you for your time and help

I am no specialist for insignia but even if this is a rarer variety of an eagle there were such things - depending on who (which firm/individual) embroidered it.

Never seen this insignia before in my life but even so, I'd expect a theater to have even worse quality than that as the people watching wouldn't have to come up close to the hat, right?

Bas, I believe he is referring to the "theater of battle" and not a musical production type theater. Bob

Note:


This cap (here) is 110% authentic.

I cannot judge the other item with the images as proffered.

Could be privately made eagle.

Not a cap eagle but look at this tunic eagle. Not your run of the mill type but 100% original (and beautiful) none the less.

I love the look of the one on your visor

To add...Just because it is not "textbook" doesn't make it not original

"To add...Just because it is not "textbook" doesn't make it not original "

Bravo. The textbook collector is the mediocre collector. The variety of this regalia is much of its poetry and splendor.

This source, for which I paid an insane amount of cash money, constantly went on about how many persons from the 18th century until the 20th century did
not follow the "textbook," whatever that was really.

I knew I had seen unusual types of eagles somewhere here:
