Is it possible to see the close up picture of the star

[RichieC]

I need to see a closer image of the star. Most larger red-painted stars were of postwar production - made in Germany for reparation.

Here's a close up

[RichieC]

Absolutely... German made star...

Now that I look at the cap more carefully, it seems to me that it also looks German made judging from the type of chinstrap and the visor.

If there is a stamp inside, I'll bet it reads Robert Lubstein - Berlin (EREL). If it is unmarked, it could have been made by one of the other smaller hatmakers in Germany and Austria.

[pjm]

Thanks. No stamp inside. Here's a view.

Lovely cap...

Does the quality and material attributes look familiar compared to this one (except the red piping and black velvet band for Armor)?

Research up to now credits a private Austrian or German hatmaker for this piece, and IMO, probably your's also...

[pjm]

very much so...obviously from the same factory - looks like the same lining and sweatband.

Nice pieces.
