Is that velvet material between the sweatband and the visor?

If it is Velvet is not a recognised feature on an Erel.

Is this an erel white top (no doubt there) on a cap base of another cap maker??

looks like a foam material, see top right pieces missing.
Extra holes in visor, reapplied, but when? Could it be period done.

Hi Gary, this is an interesting piece. The black material in pic 9 looks like velvet. I have seen Pekuro's with half velvet bands instead of full that look just like this cap. The sponge stuff on this cap is nothing that I have ever seen on an erel. That does not mean erel didn't do one.

The cap top is erel marked no doubt there. The rest of the cap is not something that I would like by the way the interior of the base looks. I would like my erel cap base to have the more recognised DRGM marked sweatband and the cushion system associated with that marking.

The outside pics of the whole cap look quite nice though.
