I have got to page eight and I felt like commenting,
I have been meaning to read this thread, but I dare say you need to have alot of time prepared if you are going to read it, unless you want to take breaks every several pages.
Though I like minty items, I quite enjoy bad conditioned items as when they have holes you get to see inside the cap inside the craftwork.
Here is a german war time wedding, including all sorts of caps, from the top hat to the soldier's caps down the aisle.
But I do say that most caps one day will turn to nothing like thier cork and foam comfort bands.
Happy new-year gentlemen,
Patrick Lewis
Thank you for posting, Pat. Just what I need to cheer myself up a bit now! Happy New Year!
Hochachtungsvoll,
Kenneth S-H.

Re: Muetzenfabrik
Very nice thank. Read the Wilkins book and then read this thread. This thread is not especially linear, but then knowledge is never neat.
This medium is scattered and it requires extra effort to make a story out of it, for it is a panoptikum.

Knowledge is never neat indeed, my friend. They are ready to lynch me in the Imperial Germany & Austria-Hungary section of the forum now I believe - I tried to make a point that was utterly misunderstood and twisted around to be something it is not. Of course you know this experience already, F-B.

As you say. I know all too well, and have wasted far too much time with the attempt to make the plate of pasta linear, to no good end. all the best to Norway, FB

Re: Muetzenfabrik
I wonder if either of you could please delve into those discs and post a page from UM for me. I would like to check Number 15 from August 1, 1939 page 229. The citation should lead to a mention or description of the SS white cap.
Many thanks and Happy New Year,

Happy new year, and a small gift, as I owe you whole thing and have no time to make it, at all.
This describes the introduction of the SS white tunic and the wear of a white or black cap.
I am not going to translate this all now, but perhaps later. The white tunic was to be made in a lined, or unlined version, the latter of which could be washed, versus the former, which required chemical cleaning. Such a fact should also strike terror into the hearts of stitch Taliban who imagine that the insignia stayed on the tunic forever....mention is made of the removable insignia for such a white tunic, though.
You can see that the white cap was to have a removable, washable cover, and otherwise caps were to be made with an attached cover, too.
The article also suggest that the textiles for said tunic were to be gotten from RZM or Kleiderkasse SS.
This item emerged in the last weeks of peace, obviously from this notice, and makes plain why the onset of war would make these things so rare.
The list of SS textiles is from the Kleiderkasse SS catalog of late 1940.
