Are you 100% sure?
As nobody gave his opinion even though I bought I have not paid ...

The first published hat I bought
The Visor Cap war Belonged to the collection of American Paul Sack, well-known collector and author of the book on rare hats Third Reich.
It is the original cap featured in his book on rare Third Reich caps.
This same cap was sold in his day also by Helmut Weitze that can certify their authenticity and the seller has given me assurance of originality lifetime (militaryantiques.co.uk)Last edited by marisca lrommel; 10-31-2016, 05:51 AM.

Hi for all.
Copy/paste the dealer message:
Dear Sir
Many thanks for your order and subsequent emails. The cap that is listed on the website and you have ordered is 100% original. It came from a well known collection in the USA belonging to Paul
Sack. It is the actual cap featured in his book on rare Third Reich caps. Why someone on this forum sight would state it is not original I don't know. The person has probably never even seen the cap so cannot make a comment like this. It has also been viewed by Helmut Weitze, Germany's biggest Third Reich dealer who will also tell you that the item is original. Unfortunately, with forums a lot of comments are made by
ill informed collectors who for reasons known only to themselves do not like dealers making a profit on items or because they cannot afford the items themselves cast doubt on it. If you look on my site you can see that I list only original items. If you decide to buy the cap our items come with full money back cover and you would be able to show it to any knowledgeable expert you like. Also if this is a "frankie" cap then please show me another example of these so called "frankie" caps. I am sure you will not be able to.
The cap conforms with known examples of this makers work of the Third Reich period. It is a lovely rare example and shown clearly in the Saks book on caps.
If you wish to go ahead you can pay by visa or whatever form of payment you choose. I await your reply.
Regards
Robert

Anyone can ensure that is true or false?
And who can not believe the truth. I believe in the word of Mr. Paul Sack to ensure that this cap did not belong to his collection. Perhaps the seller confuses cap Sack's book with his cap even if we look closely, there are differences in the eagle.
I think the eagle hat shop militaria is authentic but the question is: Does this hat is authentic and the eagle was in his cap from the beginning or is a composition made to give value to a cap that is not a NCO Government Officer?
Paul Sack's opinion is very important in this question that I
