            I'm not crazy about the one for review, reason being that I can't easily get around why an issue penal visor would be made by Pekuro with the extra luxury of a stirndruckfrei feature.
            It would have bottom piping as already pointed out.
            I also don't like the chin strap.
            Here is my example for comparison;

              The insignia was MOST likely added long after this was made..the hat is early mid 30s..real..most likely for stalhelm group or like kind..Billbert

                My thoughts as well; original visor, added insignia.

                  I agree with the above. Jacques

                    I agree--hat is a 100% original TR Pekuro. However, the chinstrap is a replacement. Insignia is obviously added. I would put it in the mystery / unreferenced category. It probably just had the cockade (no wreath) and a civil eagle.

                      OK, I think I'll stick to LW in the future - you never stop learning...!

                      All the best for 2013

                        You may be right on the chinstrap..BUT Back in the early 30s they had a variety of goofy ersatz even shiny plasticy looking chinstraps..plus its also not unusual to see a chinstrap button a mm or 2 larger than the later standard size which this cap has.... just sayin..Billbert
