Nice Weimar Postal visor :
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”

Weimar postal visor. Apparently, if the postman worked in a telegraph station, they wore blue piping instead of orange:
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”
Just picked this up--a visor for a telegraph operator from the Sachsen Reichspost based out of Chemnitz.
The sparks below the eagle indicate that it is for the Telegraphenverwaltung.
Hat is made by Julius Kuhn of Dresden (who made hats into the TR).
Cap has a lovely gold eagle with polished highlights:

Sachsen Post by Julius Kuhn of Dresden. Note the soldier's id tag under the sweatband. This could indicate that Saxony recalled Feldpost visors for re-issue to the Post during the early years of the Weimar Republic.
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”
1925-dated Kiel Postal Kleiderkasse visor addressed to a telegraph operator (cap has an incorrect BRD cockade on it):
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”
You don't see too many portraits of Weimar postmen:
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”
It looks like Bender of Stockach scored a contract with the DRP:
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”
Private-purchase by Carl Kirschner of Bayreuth.
