KM Visors by Bernhard Plauser/ Köln - Berlin

[stonemint]

I have seen this stamp sporadically on KM visors over the years.

I am trying to confirm that Plauser did exist during the TR, and that he made KM visors.

If anyone has info, please post.

No problem with this maker.

Hi fellow collectors i have a nco Km visor cap made by Bernhard Pleuser but in this case from a unknown branch but this one has already shown in another thread posted by Chris (Stonemint)

[stonemint]

KJV, thanks for that. The reason I could not find anything was due to my mis-reading of the logo all these years (ie, Bernhard Pleuser instead of Plauser)

[stonemint]

Guys--believe it or not, Pleuser is still in business today. They make all sort of visor components (probably the main supplier to Janke, Fritsche, etc).

Any type of sweatband available for your restoration needs:

billbert, I would agree with you.

Hi Guys,

Ok, sounds reasonable, But who could have made them, all the caps I've seen with this sweatband logo, have nothing on sweat diamond ? Might it also be possible they did make the whole cap? Are there any caps known to be made by them, heer, luft, etc ? just for my own knowledge.

Hi Billbert,

Thanks, so you do think they did produce caps as well as sweatbands, that cap sure is nice.
