Marcello, thanks for that--have we figured out who the maker of these Kronsiegel visors was?

Hallo Chris

Unfortunately no So far I have identified the following retailers:
C. Windoffer Gelsenkirchen
H. Köhler Dortmund
H. Sieland Dortmund
J. Zeller Dortmund
Hubert ?
As you can see, three out of five were in Dortmund, and therefore the only trace is that he could be a major producer of that area.

Best regards

There is another clue. If you look at the crown it is actually made up of the initials HKW with a D below that could mean Dortmund. So we have to look for a producer with these initials. This is the page of the 1938 Dortmund’s Hutmacher:

The main suspect, in my opinion, is H. Köhler Witwe (widow) = HKW.

Obviously this is just a logical theory

The Kepi is a fake, but do you have anything for a Heinrich Dohnert of Minden?:
