Hello all,
I want to share pictures of this quite rare crusher, we have anyhow never had another.
It was found outside Rome in the 1960´s.
It is made with a fieldgrey rayon top which is now very faded from sun to tan. Unfortunately it have gotten some slight damage but still it must rate as a very rare one.
I am interested seeing pictures of similar ones or even better a period photo of one in wear.
The cap is made by quality maker Wilhelm Welhausen in Hannover and both sweatband and sweatshield bear his mark. Cap looks to have had a chincord at some time, probably as issued as it was taken of directly, it can be seen as it never made any markis in the leather Peak.
