Hello!

I have been looking at one dealers pages and found this SS cap.
Have seen one like this before, but with another color inside.

I am not too experienced with those soft visors but it sure looks good from the pics. Bob Coleman or BenVK might have some input.

The cap appears to be fresh out of one of the producers of material of the 4th Reich. Genuine examples of this hat are few and far between. I have never had the opportunity to handle an original example. The insignia aooear to be fakes. Not a good sign.

The rest of this guy's TR stuff is crap too- check out the Allg. SS General's white top and the pair of SS Gen's tabs, just to name a couple...

Yes, all of the headgear I saw there is bogus, and much of the other stuff too.
