Police Officers overseas cap, ss style

[heinrich66]

Hi,

i had this sidecap for a while and would like to show it. The cap is unworn and near mint, the insignia is flatwire. It has a em interior which is not so often seen on police caps. There's only a minor color difference behind the flap (hard to see in the pics)

Regards

Heinrich

Heinrich66,

Very nice cap, I have one very similar only with an artillery soutache. It has a rayon lining and a partial leather sweatband. They are not very common caps. Mine does not have the added ring of bullion around the cockade...nice touch. Thanks for sharing a not so common SS police item.

Looks like a nice original cap. Nice with the added bullion around the flawire cocade!

Here are a couple of photos that show similar type police caps with and without soutache. One is described as an artillery officer. I'll shoot a few shots of mine if anyone is interested.

Heinrich,

That is a wonderful cap. I have never been able to find one that I felt was original.

Well, for whatever its worth, here's mine. I also have a panzer police officer that I picked up on the E-stand thats so cheesy I think its real. I don't think they could make wool this poor of quality today if they tried. The lining is real funky too and if I recall it was from one of the moderators.
