Need a Little Help Please

[Roman2827]

Hello guys,
To start off, I'm a big cold war buff. I'm traveling and in a small shop in Dublin I found what I think is a USSR Officer hat. The issue is i can't find much on it, any help would be great more detail the better. Fingers crossed, I hope its real.

Hi Roman,,

Like the other Gent im no expert on Rusky Gear but i can tell you that i think i know the Shop,Was it Just off of Grafton Street in a place called the Powerscourt Centre and was a little boutique style shop with Jewellery shops both sides of it and the guy was sat at a small desk in the corner? If so i know for a fact that he used to visit Russia regulary and was an avid collector of all things from the Motherland so an educated guess tells me its almost definatelty a good one as that was his field,His German stuff on the other hand was 50/50 i got a couple of bits in a trade with him once but he had a couple of bad repro SA Daggers and repro EK1s if i remember correctly?
He has closed down since though...

Nice Cap by the way,,

Kind Regards
