    HJ Flakhelfer cap - opinion on stamp

    I recently acquired this Flakhelfer cap.
    All seems good with the exception of this round stamp on the inside.

    It reads: "Waffen SS - EAGLE - Verwaltung - SS Flak Ersxxxx".


    I`d like to hear you opinions on this stamp.
    Real or post ww2 applied?

    Sounds like fake markings i do not see any pictures
    Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
    teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.

              I have uploaded the pictures to another server.
              Hope this time it will work.

              Question remains the same:
              Round stamp "Waffen SS - EAGLE - Verwaltung - SS Flak Ersxxxx".

              Good or post ww2 applied?

                It worked before...

                Good cap with fake round markings. Even IF those caps should have some kind of SS-markings, it would not be shaped like the one here. Thats a stamp for papers, not for fieldgear or uniforms.

                  Do you think it's a Feldpost stempel?
                  I am not familiar with SS Feldpost stamps, I know only those of Luftwaffe and Heer. But shouldn't there be a Feldpostnummer on a SS Feldpost stamp?

                  This one only reads Verwaltung + the unit.
                  Could it be an inventory/depot stamp?

                            Dont know a thing about the SS flak stamp...do know that many ost flak helferin hj were under SS control.. The printed insignia s are in the SS insignia reference book I believe by Angolia.. MAYBE??? Billbert

                            and of course the hat is a real HJ flak helferin cap....

                              The cap looks good, good example of Flakhelfer cap. But I believe that the stamp has been used only to add value to the cap. It may not be even a good stamp.

                              Still nice cap.

                              Regards
