Description
Luftwaffe Flak visor cap grouping to Oberfeldwebel Wilhelm Hahnmeyer with rare period time photo proof. The visor cap part of this grouping is exactly the one shown not the period time photographs. You can clearly see that this is the identical cap on his portrait photo as an Unteroffizier. But there are also later photos where it shows the cap now being worn with an officer's chin strap when he became an Oberfeldwebel.
 
cap overall in good condition 2. One small moth hole to the side and minor mothing to the back. Aluminum cap wreath badge. Eagle missing. Green sweat-band and green silk lining. Signs of wear. Celluloid diamond removed.
Size 56/57.
 
Four original photographs as well as his Sports Badge certificate booklet with original attached photograph.
 
A very nice cap! Caps with photo proofs are very hard to find!
