Cap is Austrian--probably from the 1950s, however, I cannot tell you what organisation it was for.
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”

Thank you! I hope somebody can identify the organization! : - )

I can tell you that the red shield with the cross used on both badges is the coat-of-arms for Vienna. The manufacturer is from Vienna, too.
-
Thank you! So I think it's sure that the cap is post war.....

Hello levaid,
this is a Viennese firefighter's cap (Berufsfeuerwehr Wien). The Litto Logo is quite ancient, as is the cap's shape (saddle shaped, not the typical Austrian saucer shape) so I suppose very early 50ies or late 40ies.
Here is the modern version (unfortunately Litto no longer exists, they must have closed down several years ago already): https://www.raritaeten-shop.com/Samm...sol27lfhg4tk54

Big thanks! Great! I think it's a rare piece!

Bravo, Wolfgang!
You can find in the Bundesheer of today caps with a surprising Wehrmachtschnitt to them, but they are few and far between.
PS. The elderly gentleman is an authentic citizen of Vienna and the young woman is a Pfieke, but she has become a citizen of the great metropole all the same.
