    Water Customs Bullion Insignia for Visor

    Dear all, I know that water customs bullion insignia for visor is rare. Do you think this is a good one? By the way, does anyone have a water customs officer visor? Thank you.

    Yes, I would say real. Have yet to see an original Wasserzoll in the flesh--all turned out to be re-worked KM style visors.

        By the way, does anyone have a period photograph showing water customs officer visor in wear? If yes, kindly post it here. Thanks!

          I found this today. I could see no reference before. But I think this is not at re-worked KM one because its color looks different in a lighter blue manner. Any comments?

            My first question would be what happened to the Stirndruckfrei system?

                  Austrian HBA stamping in the lining ?
                  It could explain the lighter blue colour ...

                    Yes, but the hat was made in Germany. Furthermore, the sweatband is stamped 1937, a year before the Anschluss. Too many red flags flapping in the wind....

                      Hi all

                      This visor was already discussed three months ago:

                        Enorepap, thanks for the link. It seems that there is still no clue. Interesting link though.

                          Yes, I agree that currently there is still not a definitive and indisputable clue, although the balance seems to me to lean more towards the negative side ...
