Ian, although it doesn't matter to me (because the item is not mine) I vetted the insignia with one of the hobby's finest (via email, admittedly) and they liked the insignia. Feel free to discuss, but I don't have a dog in this fight. Likely this was an Infantry NCO visor in its earlier days.

Craig if this is the logo in this cap no need to bother. It is bad! No and I mean no W-SS contract visor had makers marks, period. This logo is from a civil lining. This is a huge red flag as there has NEVER been an authentic W-SS contract visor with a maker marked shield that I know of. The contract linings for Heer & SS were blank or size marked only. If some one can post a visor to prove different I would love to see that one. Not to mention is has a velvet band. No way, no how, sorry.Attached Files
