Boxed Post 1943 General Visor

[david_iu]

Dear all, I have always been looking for a post 1943 Army General Visor. I now find this one being kept in its original box. It seems that it has never been worn and has been kept in the box (capsule) since the war. Any comments?

Photos depicting inside of the visor will be provided later today. Stay tuned!

The cap certainly looks good. Not 100% sure on wreath though. Maybe its just becaused it has not aged.

I love it.
It appears to be the same one shown in the German War Booty Book, Page 30.

Hi David,

Hard to believe but it looks as if you've found an early Erel General Cap in absolutely new condition.
By the way; I have still space in my showcase...

Cheers Andi

Thanks for all the positive comments. This cap "has not been" mine yet. I am thinking of purchasing it because of its being quite expensive, taking into consideration of my budget. Yes Karl, this is the same cap as depicted in the said book.

Nick, thanks for your comment. However, IMHO, the wreath seems to be good too which matches the "aging", if any, of the other decorations, i.e. eagle, chincord, pipings, etc.

Oh, I thing that I forgot to point out is that the ribbon bar depicted in the photo belonged to the original owner of this Visor.
