Ewald Hirte was a postwar headgear manufacturer (the company does not appear to have lasted very long).

Heinrichsdorff of Paderborn has been making caps since 1911.
It is very rare to find examples of their TR production (I know of only 2).


Hute und Mutzen in Paderborn - Adolf Heinrichsdorff

I just checked their homepage and, sorry to say, there is a pop-up message saying that due to irreparable damages stemming from WW II the building has to be torn down and they give up business - there will be a sale in another building, also see here: Paderborn: Nach 113 Jahren ist Schluss fur Hutladen Heinrichsdorff. A pity, they had nice things: Hute & Mutzen - Sortiment - Heinrichsdorff in Paderborn.
