          This might show the wool under the flap better?

            A good friend felt this was Austrian manufacture as well.

            Thank you

              The cap looks like an orginal late war bergmütze. But are you sure the insignia are original sewn? I have some doubts about it....

              Can we have some better close ups please?

                Sander,

                I think this may actually fall into a 39-42 category vs late? That is just a guess of course based on its traits and it is not a standard bergmutze. The photgraphs do not seem to pick the actual wear very well but I am happy with it .

                Thank you for taking a look.

                  Well, based on the feldgrau material I think the cap was made ca.1942-1943. After that, the standart M43 took place.

                    To me if you look at foto 3 the cap also exhibits a decidedly AUSTRIAN flavor in its cut,,kinda of a combination of 2 austran army caps 1 with the coffee can looking cap they had and the m42 looking cap with internal foldout front bill ..And I also agree if the material is german in manufacture and color its NOT a pre or very early war year material used in its manufacture..JMHO Billbert
