Field cap M42

[Alex Ciavaglia]

Hello friends,
is there someone who has already read the maker of this field cap ?
Pallas
Gesellschaft für Bekleidungsherstellung m.b.H.
WERK ZLABINGS. N.D.
I posted some shots of the side rivets. I'd like to be sure that they are ok because i'm not able to recognizee if they are made with zinc (good) or aluminium (fake).
Thank you in advance for your replies.

Not a marker I've ever encountered...It to me looks like it stands a chance of being original...some have handsewn some have machine..Billbert

Hi Bilbert, the trap has been hand reapplied but it is still present the trace of the original machine seam near the top...

I'm not up on the best current fakes,but I like what I see..other than the size number most likely being foto distorted..Billbert

Hallo Alex

I agree with Billbert and I like what I see. Pallas of Zlabings (Slavonice in Moravia) is a confirmed period maker.

Hallo Alex

Just a curiosity. Is this a new M42 or is there any connection with those of the same manufacturer you posted in previous years?

Best regards
