Papakha information request
I've come into possession of this colonel's papakha. I'd like some feedback and information on it. Is the badge original to the hat? I have seen similar interior stamps on 1960s dated pieces, does that make sense for this stamp without any date stamp (IE how can I date this one?). Also what branch is it given the hat badge?
Does the stamp say Ministry of Light Industry Moscow Fur Factory #5?
At the bottom of the stamp is a 9......

Re: Papkha information request
Anyone? Is the insignia right for the hat? The wreath seems uncommon, could an airforce colonel wear this?

Reviving an old thread with a new 'in use' photo.
Indeed an air force badged papakha.
Later investigation does put the stamp in the 1960s (could also be in other eras).

Yes, it is so.
-
the "9" a the bottom is most likely part of the size, as in "59". maybe the stamper got creative and thought that just a "9" was enough since the factory #5 was already there
