Description

interesting EM Kriegsmarine visor cap with a breast eagle attached by hand instead of the correct visor cap eagle. Having seen all sorts of non-textbook variations, we believe this could well be period time attached and worn exactly like that.

Hand-embroidered wreath badge. More silver than gold so maybe for officials. Aluminium cockade.

EM chin strap. Sweat-band with sign of use. One part has been reinforced. "LR" initial buttons. Blue silk lining with a "ED. WENNINGA" maker marked celluloid diamond. "TAIFUN MÜTZE" marked.

Size 57. Moth damage mainly to the top.
