Untypical LW white top NCO by Stieve

[JackHun]

Hmm, this cap raises a few questions to me - does anyone have other examples of this maker? It looks and feels old.

Cheers!

Stieve would be the distributor. Pekuro the maker.

Hallo Jack

I agree with Chris.

A rare retailer

[JackHun]

Thanks Chris and Marcello, will post more pictures soon - a few interesting things on that cap.

Cheers,

Jack

Looks like an early Pekuro cap.

[JackHun]

Thanks Kreager, here some more pictures. Never seen a cap with kind of a "filling" on top of the inner lining. Keeps the shape nicely. Maybe typical for Peküro?

[JackHun]

Here from the outside - officer´s insignia, the weirdest eagle I´ve ever seen but a normal NCO chin strap...?

[JackHun]

The eagle was sewn directly on the white top - and there are no holes for normal NCO eagle prongs...?

Anyone ever seen such a "softie" eagle?

Many question marks - but gotten like that from the former owner according to the person I bought it from - hmm...

Thanks for looking!

Hallo Jack

I believe that this cap has been extensively discussed over three years ago and the majority has concluded that it is an Oberfähnrich:

For what it is worth, I stand by my idea, but however I accept the judgment of the majority.

Thank you Marcello, how do you remember all these old threads - I'd even commented on that cap myself!!! It is the same one...
