Hi,

Sorry for the poor photo but I haven't other!
Is it a railway visor? Original? Price range?

Thanks a lot.

Hallo Francisque

This is Friedrich Issler in 1935:

Also an Erwin Issler was at the same address, who was associated with Alfred Vogel in the same business field, as testified by this beautiful visor, posted by my good friend Carlo (WAF member “solo”) more than thirteen year’s ago:

Friedrich and Erwin Issler were important suppliers of the Railway Administration and manufacturers of civil and even military headgears.

No more Issler in the postwar age (1963):

Therefore, also through the additional images that I attach to you (courtesy of my other good friend Chris "Stonemint"), I see a valid Reichsbahn visor to which an improper and disproportionate eagle has been added.

Best regards

Thanks a lot for this clear answer

And for a price range for this one?

Being an avid censor of the exorbitant prices of the militaria, I am not indicated to define the right price for this visor. Certainly, from the only two images that you have posted and that I see, it is not in optimal conditions and, until some time ago, few people were looking for civil objects. Considering that the eagle would not be its either, I would tell you no more than 200 euros.

Best regards
