Franky W-SS Pz Pekuro on Ebay

I didn't comment on this hat, as I wanted to see just how high the price would go--and it went to $2600. Looks like he used the body of a Pekuro, and the sweatband, but not the lining.

Check out the crease/wrinkle on the left side of the hat above the 2nd ring of piping--sloppy, sloppy, sloppy!:

However, that ain't no Pekuro lining:

I will not state to this cap anything, I just would like to mention that one big named visor cap producer used everything that they could get to hold on to their production at the end of the war. This is one statment from one person who worked for a big named headgear company at this time. It is just not always right to call a visor not original when certain components are unusally or might mixed up.

Another case of using a Pekuro sweatband in a dodgy cap because they are easy to stitch in.

The sad part is all the good Pekuro hats that are being ruined for the parts.

It is a shame, what people will do for money these days
