Waffen-SS NCO visor for review.

[Friedrich-Berthold]

I agree with Bob Coleman, and we discussed this cap already, I believe in some detail, However, its source was not at first revealed.

[herrgeezer]

Thank you Friedrich-Berthold, your input is very much appreciated.

[Friedrich-Berthold]

Thanks, someone pitched a fit about this cap, I recall, and I included many examples of similar, authentic caps.
There is a gun show legend to the effect that no SS cap can have a grey lining, which is pretty silly, in fact.
This example is above average, in that these caps usually show much wear and are battered.

[Friedrich-Berthold]

Such enlisted and or NCO caps are quite rare. A legend suggests that they are more rare than the grey officer's cap, which may be true.

This cap looks like my cap that has been discussed here. The lining appers to be the same fabric

[Friedrich-Berthold]

I own one of these that is in the Shea & Beaver book.

[herrgeezer]

Thank you again gentlemen. This will be my first SS visor so I very happy to hear all the good reports!

[Friedrich-Berthold]

Congratulations. One leads to another.

[Friedrich-Berthold]

We also are at pains to help people find their way through the all too promiscuous confusion.

[Friedrich-Berthold]

This one is the ex Pepera piece, and is for sale now in Muenchen at auction.
