Postwar Ushanka or wartime?

[PapaStalin1943]

Hello. I think that this is a postwar ushanka because I have not seen this type of liner before, but maybe the star is original? Who knows, maybe it is original; I have been wrong in the past. Thanks!

[PapaStalin1943]

I believe that the star is wartime, because it looks the exact same as the one on my great-uncles ushanka.

The ushanka it's sef is indeed post war - Bulgarian, A wartime Soviet liner is most always going to look like this - -

I also think the ushanka is postwar Bulgarian. Not WW2 Soviet for sure.

It's a reproduction for me, Bulgarian Ushanka are not like this one .

[Marcel Banziger]

Found this exact one at shopbulgaria.com Not sure if original surplus stock found in warehouses or newly made reproductions, modeled after postwar ushankas (and I guess the latter to be true - so Dom, guess you are correct!).
