A teller form gray SS NCO visor cap worn by an early member of the SS-VT or SS-TV. The cap has evidence of having the 1929 national emblem mounted on it at one time. I would date this hat no later than 1934.

Another treasure among your other treasures. What a cool cap!
Is that a velvet band or just glare in the photo? Any chance of a shot of the whole interior Bob? I'm not doubting it, just want to see.
Thanks for this important piece. If the Hersteller Nummer is indeed "2" as it appears to be, then it is from Adalbert Breiter, Munich, a firm which made many early SS caps and also which is still going strong in Bavaria as a maker of headwear.
I am going to Munich presently, but I do not have the guts to march into the Breiter outlet downtown there unbidden and ask to see their company records from the 1933-1945 era.
The locals can also be quite unfriendly if the spirit so moves them.
