Tropical CW sidecap with zigzag stitch eagle application

[Tim O'Keefe]

Would like to have everyone's opinions on this cap ? Looks like another beehive cap. CW tropical sidecaps usually have a distictive hand sewn eagle application but this one has the zigzag stitch ?

Repro CW in my opinion! Bad cockade, soutache, grommets, fabric, inkstamp. This cap is bogus to the core.

Thanks Robt thats what i thought too, grommets, makers stamp, eagle, list is pretty long.............

Reason i really posted it was that have seen a couple of CW black Pz sidecaps with the zigzag stitch eagle application with the Braunschweig makers stamp that looked good but got few comments from the Forum ? Here is the thread to one of these post # 33 to 38 & post 52.

I have never seen one like that Tim,

it is a bit weird;

Is the cockade a good one or not ???

Artifically rusted magnetic grommets for CW ???

lining material looks like a post war type ???

wide soutache, rare white on a CW ???

strange less common CW stamp ???

Zig-zag stitched eagle on a CW ???



Certainly not one for me but lets see what others think,

whoops, Robert (RDG51) beat me to the conclusion
