A Heer officer's sidecap with a early tombak SS skull attached instead of a cockade. Mismatching insignia like that were also worn by SS officers so this example might have either worn by an SS or a Heer officer.
Machine-woven officer's cap eagle postwar attached by machine. Machine-attached white soutache.
Tombak skull attached with both prongs.
Black silk lining. A white "55" size stamp. Very soft brown leather sweat-band.
