    WW1 Husaren Pelzmutze

    Hello,

    I was wondering if this cap was an original...I friend of mine has it for sale and I thought it was rather interesting. It appears to be a Husaren Pelzmutze but I dont really collect WW1 or I have no experience with ww1 headgear. Please let me know what you think...

    Regards,
    Chris G.

      Thank you so much for the reply. It thought the cap was really cool but I dont really collect this type of item. My friend was asking $450 usd for the cap...I haven't seen any others around and was wondering if that was an good deal or is that asking too much?

      Regards,
      Chris G.

        That would be about a quarter of market price for a real one but I have real concerns if this one is in fact original. Other s can chime in but I know a full range of excellent reproductions of the filtz helms were produced about 50 years ago. One thing we know now but few did back then is that most of not all of these were originally made in 1914/15 not late war

          Ah thank you so much for your thoughts on it. Like I said I dont know much about this cap. I tried to do some of my own research but was unable to really find anything about these other than what they are.

          Regards,
          Chris G.

              The yellow bag would be for either Husaren Regt nr.4 or 16.
              Curious about the stamp, though; were these still being made in 1918?

                $450 is what a replica of one of these sells for.

                Just like the repro "#22" felt spike helmet that sold on eBay a day ago, for over $300 to someone. It's a well known fake and someone still wanted it.

                Best Regards,

                Alan

                    Thank you for all your thoughts on the cap guys. I will probably pass on this one because there appears to be mixed feelings about the originality of the cap.

                          No Hussar regiment had an orange bag.

                              http://www.kaisersbunker.com/pt/pelzmutze.htm

                              this link shows the regulation changes for the pelzmutze up until the last regulation change in 1915. these seem to have been produced even early post war until the german army had to downsize due to the treaty of versailles. just for future reference. this 1918 produced cap does fit the 1915 regulation btw.
