    Another one in my collection!

    Now I have examples from 1969-1970-1971-1972

    Z of course being the code for 1969 and it’s a size 54

    This 1969 example has a leather sweatband which I found pretty cool since it goes to a fake leather one in 1970.

    I have also included a group photo with the year of manufacturing going from 69-72

    It appears after 1970 the visors get more a peak. The only other unique thing I spotted about this visor was the code of 8049 at the top of the label.

    Enjoy and keep an eye out as I will be posting a 1962 dates example soon!

    That's a nice collection of VoPo caps you have there John... I still don't have an example of this type in my collection. My list of makers doesn't mention the '8049' code, so unfortunately I cannot help you there. I look forward to seeing the earlier cap too.

    Cheers,
    Steve

    It depends on how much room you have!

    An ambitious collector project, good work! I'm sure you can get all the caps eventually.

    The 8049 is a rather unique maker, it seems to be completely unknown. But there were a lot of state owned clothing manufacture firms that previously belonged to German families prior to the nationalization of all businesses in East Germany. Most of the uniform manufacture firms were called something along the lines of ''VEB Bekleidungswerke'', often following the name of the area where it operated.
