This cap finally arrived today, after almost two months since it was shipped from Germany.
It was listed as a general staff cap & the carmine band & piping is correct for that branch, but the dark blue color, unique to ulan regiments, leads me to think it is actually for either Ulanen-Regt. Prinz August von Wurttemberg ( Posensches) Nr.10, garrison Zullichau, or 2. Hannoversches Ulanen-Regt. Nr.14, garrison St.Avold-Morchingen.
Nice to have it's box as well, from the prestigious Potsdam firm of H. Ahlers, who also made headgear during the Third Reich era.
Opinions most welcome.
