Waffenfarbe, oh Waffenfarbe

I feel the same, "klassisch ist am besten". Contrarianism is usually the best policy if you are besieged by dangerous fools. Oskar Matzerath, a famously non-poisonous dwarf, found this to be true.

Well said. I have not seen this film since it came out in 1979. I would like to see it again.

1979 is an awfully long time ago, surely.

This cap originally came from Manion's; and I bought it in the 1990s from a collector to whom I had sold a part of my collection in the early 1980s; and sold I then it in the last decade to a member here for a modest price, who was regaled by the glamor dealer that the thing was fake; whereupon one of the leading headwear collectors in North America bought it (at several times my purchase price) and put it in his book.....where you find it now.

Which book is this FB?

I think you already know my thoughts in regards to these piped caps so I won't bore everyone again.

The image is from the Wilson History Center book with the ungrammatical title: Exotische, which should be "die Exotischen."

Die Exoten, or die Exotischen.

Exoten.

Ah ha, I don't see your old cap here FB but the red piped Paul Kaps has obviously found a new Exotische home in the States.

I saw these images. The dealer also has an SS Umhang and a cap. A costly image, to be sure.
