SS Visor Cap - need help

[EichhorstT]

I have the option to buy this cap, but I need help with checking the authenticity. The seller ensures that it is the original.
I looked through a lot of photos of such Visor Caps, but the original ones can differ significantly from each other, so it's hard for me to judge it, but the more photos I saw, the more I think that this cap is a reproduction.
Could you please take a look at it?

In addition, I have a question for experts of the subject, or owners, do the books from the series "Uniforms of the SS" by Andrew Mollo have good photos and are they worth buying? Any of you have this series and can write something about it?

Thanks for help
TE

Doesn't look good

Nothing good here IMHO.

Feel free to look at our reference book library section of the forum. It might has some books that might be of interest for you.

I think your gut is correct, nothing looks right to me at all.

The cap is an artificially aged reproduction.
There is not an original part on it.

Both cap and insignia are completley fake.
