IMO it is a good period piece. I saw it offered for sale elsewhere and thought it was a good piece at a decent enough price.

I always wondered why there were so many Handschar Fez in the west , thank you Bob for the explanation .
For once a maroon colored specimen not stripped for insignia by a "collector."
I've heard many were stripped in the 70's 80's for the insignia .
It would be quite the find to uncover a Fez full of tabs and cuffs !
The things collectors Dreams are made of , thanks for the extra details .
Thanks everyone

Here is a pic of a GI at Dachau with a Fez in his hand:
