I have questions about the hat--maker logo is Unag .
If a period lining, it would be the first wartime Unag logo I can recall seeing.
UNAG = Uniform AG
Unag Uniform AG, Nachf. Gebr. Weis, Frankfurt/M. (bis 1926: Mohr u. Speyer AG, Frankfurt/M.; bis 1933: Vereinigte Uniform AG, Mohr u. Speyer, Jacob Weis; Feldstein u. Berger, Frankfurt/M.; bis 1935: Unag Uniform AG, Frankfurt/M.)Last edited by stonemint; 03-28-2017, 08:52 PM.NEC SOLI CEDITComment

1936 UNAG ad in a DRK Tagebuch--no indication they made visors:NEC SOLI CEDITComment

UNAG is known for the production of uniforms indeed and confirmed also by the 1941 Frankfurter Adressbuch, with the full name of UNAG Uniform A.G. Nachf. Gebruder Weis:

Not a mutzenmacher, but surely involved in the uniformen-fabrikation:

First time I see this lining but I have to say that there was a postwar UNAG Uniform AG of Kassel which made visors also for the Bundesbahn and this is a strange coincidence that perhaps deserves to be investigated. From these images the visor and the badges do not give a positive impression to me. Only my opinion of course.

Hallo ChrisOriginally posted by stonemint View Post
Perhaps it would be better to assume that this is a non-wartime producer because Erkelenzdamm has been named after the SPD politician and trade unionist Anton Erkelenz (1878-1945) since July 31, 1947. Before the war the street got the name Elisabethufer and on May 20, 1937 was renamed Hoffmanndamm, after the nazi-supporter Hans Hoffmann, who died on July 21, 1931, during a bloody argument with the Communists at Lausitzer Platz.
In addition no Ewald Hirte in the specific business field and no Ewald Hirte in Hoffmanndamm, as from 1943 Berlin adressbuch:

Another confirmation. No Hirte amongst the civilian or military capmakers or retailers in 1940 Berlin:
