Allgemeine SS em cap opinions

Article about: You are correct FB. It's quite boring to have to go over the same old ground with the same old characters time and time again.

    Hello all,
    Arrived today is this Allgemeine SS enlisted mans visor cap.
    Cap in hand is near mint, but in the photos below doesn't look as nice. Any comments would be appreciated.
    Best,
    Wolfslair.

    I'm not sure, but i do like this cap, but the experts will chime for sure, lets hope that F-B looks at it.

    The cap itself seems fine. I should really be able to tell you which maker it is but remembering numbers have never been my forte, I struggle with my own phone number!
    It's difficult to advise on the insignia as the photos don't show enough detail although the TK is obviously a Deschler design.
    Some additional photos would also be appreciated.

    Thank you gentlemen,
    #26 on the RZM tag is an Otto Schlientz manufacture.
    The leather chin strap interior has an SS RZM ink stamp similar to the one on the underside of the peak/visor.
    Deschler skull marked M1/52 and eagle I'm not keen on trying to remove. I'll invest in a small dentists mirror so I can see other small details.
    All in all it's a beautifull cap, rates near mint but some parts of the
    sweatband are rather brittle and torn. My camera just can't pick up the details. I'll get some better shots in natural light.
    Thanks for looking
    Wolfslair.

    The cap itself looks just fine to me. Hersteller #26, Otto Schlientz (spelling unsure), is not common but known in at least 4 other caps I can recall. Not a likely item for a build-up.

    I agree, a very nice cap.

    Wanna sell it, just kidding... NO really wanna sell it.
