Need Opinions on these Heer and Luftwaffe Caps...

[dzyner]

I know these photos aren't great, and don't show side view or interior view, but perhaps there is something about the front views that is obvious to you experts that makes these caps either authentic or known fakes. All opinions appreciated, but please elaborate on what you see so I can learn from you - I'd really appreciate it!!

I've named/numbered the photos for easy reference in your reply...

(Visor 1)

(Visor 2)

(Heer Cap)

(Luftwaffe Cap 1)

(Luftwaffe Cap 2)


Thanks!

Both visors look good.

Can you post a pic of the Luftwaffe overseas cap laying flat and interior pics of both Luftwaffe caps?

[dzyner]

I'd love to Gene, but they aren't in my possession. I've asked for more shots (side and inside views). Whether I get them or not is the question. What does your gut tell you about them based on the frontal shots?

IMO skip the red piped army artillery cap Billbert

My gut tells me "maybe possibly" because single pics, especially concerning a Luftwaffe officer's M43 cap (very rare, 90% are fake) are a minefield. Looking forward to more pics but I agree about the visors, they look nice based on their single pics

[dzyner]

Great feedback everyone!! I really appreciate your help. I hope to have more shots within the next day or two and will immediately post them. In the meantime, if you have more thoughts I'd love to hear them.

Hey, Lenny, when you say "obviously" can you please tell me what you see that is obvious? I'm trying to learn what to look for.

Thanks!

I agree with John and Lenny on the Luft Officer's M43. Not getting the "warm and fuzzy" on that one. The Luft EM OS cap looks okay so far. Like to see more pics if you're able. Good luck!
