Gentlemen,

Is this visor original?

I appreciate the review.

The thread on the liner stitches seems very white, but I don't have much experience with SS General's headgear.

Hi

Hi i just think The sweetband outside looks had much more USE then rest of The cap. Can you take more photos of under The sweet band an lining around The cap.

Here are areas of concern:

This is also a 1/2 foldover/sewn sweatband, characteristic of pre-war CWs, which were heavily padded.
This visor appears to have a thin circumference.

Turbo and Stonemint, thanks for looking and commenting with meaningful observations. I don't have this in hand, and have only limited photos from the seller.

Here are a few more photos.

Not unseen, but all that eposed stitching at the lower band seems noteworthy to me.

Yes, it is also visible on the front below the bottom row of piping. Thanks for taking a look.

Thanks Carlo, I can't tell from the angle (not straight on) on the TK.

I agree w/ N.C.--not something you want to see on a pre-war private-purchase CW (especially an SS Genl)
