    Thought I would share my most recent VoPo purchase.

    This is a 1962 dated size 54 Volkspolizei visor. This is made with a much nicer material than the later examples and from what I can tell looks pretty similar to the Third Reich visors especially that saddle shape you see side on.

    The cockade is also different from the later examples. But there is a different cockade for ones from 1951 so I will aim to get an example of that at some point. The sweatband is damaged but still together so I will need to be smart about how this gets stored/displayed.

    Hopefully you guys like this visor as much as I do!!

    Nice cover! I love the little (well, they are actually quite large sized) shell collection in the background!

    Update to this thread. As I said in the introduction. That this visor did not have the Earlier cockade.

    This is not the case! Sort of...

    While I was on eBay looking at another 1962 visor. One with three green stripes rather than two on my example. I saw he the seller had attached the following image. So it turns out these 1962 visors got modified to the new spec of cockade rather
    Than just out right replaced. So technically I do have an earlier style cockade. Just you can’t see it properly! Always cool to learn more about a piece after owning it for a while
