    Unless of course it was a slow day at the office.

    I really am on the fence with the hats from this manufacturer (in hand they present themselves Very Well). Yet I have seen close to a dozen for sale at various times both in black and green, with different insignia configurations. Perhaps just my ‘natural cynicism' towards the hobby these days. Pictured is the example offered by ‘Relic Hunter’.

      I know at least 2 real caps from this maker that came from old collections but recently i saw some fakes popping up with the (near) same maker marks .

      They where really well made but not Close enough.

        Thank you Mr. Singer for your insight. This cap you show is very nearly identical to mine. How long ago was this offered for sale?

        Whatever happened to Gerald “Relic Hunter” I wonder?

            Getting rid of their scrap insignia too,I guess..

            I remember when Gerard had the M43,7 or 8 years ago I think,or something like that.

              Sounds about right Glenn
              Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
              teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.
