Re: Feldmutze Alter Art fur Mannschaft
Good Lord! And congratulations. The crusher is lovely. Is the peak still supple? It has amazing character. Was there any restoration to do? I am curious about the peaks of these crushers, why do they often have striations and furrows?
I am a long way from acquiring a crusher as I am still working to get educated on visors.
Please share everything you know about it, date of manufacturer, construction, etc.
Cheers,
Tricot

Marvelous items, really. Bravo. I think you can leave the cupal badge where it is. We really have no idea about the badges on these, do we? The person could have easily recycled the badges from another cap. The cap with the leather peak is very handsome, has much character, and seems in very fine shape.
Thank you for sharing your nice treasures.
One seldom sees such nice things. You are raising the level here.

I will gladly share my observations in detail but not in public because I worry about the wrong people getting hold of the details and incorporating them into new generations of fakes. There are a number of unique features about the crusher that no one would ever think of faking.

Operational security has priority, especially with this thing. Thank you for showing it to us and you are right to guard the frontier with great alertness. I have spilled the beans on far too much here, with tragic results for the novice and general harm overall.

Re: Feldmutze Alter Art fur Mannschaft
Roger that!
I imagine the peak leather is pressed rolled unsplit cowhide (or horsehide) that was a lower grade than equipment leather, hence the creases and grooves.
I'm sure some mention of peak leather is trapped deep in the pages of the UM. Sadly my DVD is still mostly gibberish to me. Although the illustrations are drool inspiring.
And regarding sculls and adlers, I think your crusher would be just as lovely with a Heer embroidered eagle and a Danziger skull! I am discovering the personal variations are more interesting than strictly orthodox material. Anyone who has served in the military knows that individual servicemen often go to great lengths to customize their uniforms, often pushing the envelope as far as it will go.
