This is an original Luftwaffe Fliegermutze (Air Force cap). A similar cap is illustrated on page 209 of ‘The Collector’s Guide To Cloth Third Reich Military Headgear’ by Wilkins which is described as a possible reproduction. Ours is guaranteed 100% genuine. Our example is constructed of the correct grey / blue serge material. The cap is undamaged and clean both inside and out. The front of the cap has the correct white Luftwaffe embroidered Eagle with Swastika badge on a blue background above the National Tri-colour roundel on blue background cloth badge. The colours of the badges are vivid and clean and have the correct quality stitched edges. The left side of the cap is mounted with a small period Luftwaffe Eagle with Swastika brass badge. The crown of the cap is lined in grey cotton and has faint manufacturer black ink stamps which appear to read ‘Gebr Alm’ with other indistinct letters and numbers and ‘57’ size. The cap is approx. UK size 6. The price includes UK delivery. Sn 15793:24
