Very nice one!!! Congrats
I agree, Espenlaub is very good to deal with. They became quite pricy though. Some items are ridiculously overpriced unfortunately.

A practically identical pilotka dated 1946 just appeared on Espenlaub. Not sure how to feel about this.

Hi Llegion,
Please elaborate your doubts, do you believe that the marking in your pilotka is not genuine?
To me looks like a good one, I don't see signs of alteration in the markings. Also, I don't think the product of the Samoilova plant of 1946 would differ much from the wartime period. In all honesty, I would be proud to own the 1946 made listed on espenlaub, the production of immediate postwar time is not common
Best regards

he guys of Espenlaub are simply a garantee
I would say no ... clearly, some strange stories about them and i'm a witness of that.

Hello Bagration,
I'm surprised to hear that, my experience with Espenlaub is limited but excellent and I always heard good things about them. Would you like to share such stories with us?
Best regards
Gabriele

The 'found in Estonia' was also used with an Ushanka which they in fact bought from the E-stand on the WAF. But adding a name and chinstrap and claiming all is original is just criminal in my eyes.

Yeah so respectful of the veteran and history (they even added a picture of him with the helmet) ... so that's why i have hard time to trust Espenlaub items, if they can make such "ink modification", i guess they can modify others items too to make them more sellable ...
