Looks good to me, but as Mike said, a close up of the insigna would be nice and would give confirmation. Just my opinion.

Here is a close up of the insignia. The anchor is a bit more ornate than some I have seen. Exactly like the one that sold on the Collectors Guild. Any opinions? I'm sure its OK, but any opinions always appreciated.

It would be great to have a better image of the label and the lining, but from looking at the overall construction and the insignia, it looks good to me. Mike

I added a close up of the label in another thread asking that it be translated.

Hello Again. I think the hat you have posted is an authentic example. For another in its original carrying/storage box see eBay auction number 6554107143. Mike
