Hello everyone,

I don't know if this is the correct place to post (I hope it is) but I had a question regarding a old German Polizei cap from Schleswig-Holstein that arrived today.
I unboxed and started to inspect it when allot of dust came out of it, and would you look at that the sweatband just completely disintegrated. The cap is from the 60's I believe and I was wondering whether or not old sweatbands from visor caps are known to contain asbestos? If so, I will have to give the room a good cleaning

Thanks in advance for any replies
