    Price of these Luftwaffe caps? What are they worth on the WAF?

    Gentlemen,

    I have two pieces of luftwaffe head gear that I wish to put on the estand but I am not sure how much to ask for them. I could use your help and would welcome your suggestions.

    1- A short billed, single button, Skicap. Insignia is original to the cap. Maker marked to Hoffman. Almost impossible to see the stitching even with a magnifying glass. Textbook TR sewing.

    Luft Ski cap.

    #2 is a Luft Tropical O/S cap. In almost perfect condition. Eagle is folded over correctly and sewing on cockade is not visible.

            Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
            teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.

                Gentlemen,

                Thanks for your comments. Not what I was expecting of course. I bought these caps years ago. Well before the internet and easy access to a pool of headgear collectors. They came from a chap who was regarded as a reputable dealer at the time. Perhaps you can give me your opinions on some other pieces of Luftwaffe headgear. I had no doubts about their authenticity when I put them on the estand but now I am not so sure.

                Regards,

                Gordon

                              The M43 and the second OS cap (insignia resewn) are original IMO. Can't comment the officer OS cap.
