Re: Schirmmütze for an Offizier der Artillerie
I like it. I think it might be an early cap? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Cheers, Pat

Very nice, the ribbon through the sweatband is an especially pleasing feature.

Hi Mo
Interesting cap. have you been able to handle it ar or you just going on the photographs ?
The exterior screams Erel made cap as it has the high shape at the front and the give away vented cockade. the interior tells us that the cap was supplied via a distributor but the sweatband is one i've not seen before on an erel. Could be a replacement maybe ? If you can handle the cap get some shots of the grommit on the front cap band and the sweatband to see if it is marked as an erel made cap.
failing that buy the one I have for sale its a beauty and an arty at that !!!!
Joking apart looks good if the price is right.
cheers

My pleasure, it's funny because I have a terrible day to day memory Chris, lol, but I remember details of all the caps I've seen over the years.

Re: Schirmmütze for an Offizier der Artillerie
Thanks for your help, gentlemen. Before, I was under the impression that only Erel used a vented cockarde.
