Generals NSKK Visor Opinions Please

[wolfslair]

Hi Guy's,
This is not within my collecting field of knowledge. Could I ask for any opinions on this NSKK visor? What rank, is it original, is the insignia legit? Etc.
I can't quite make out the makers label either. Help / Opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Steve

I always have concerns when I see this logo on a high-end visor.
It appears there were stocks of these "Deutsche Wertarbeit" sweatdiamonds left over after the war, and they ended up on high-rank political hats such as this (most were retailed by Huesken/Floch).


I also would like to see the RZM tag and under the hood photos.

Wouldn't the silver colored piping indicate a standard officer's cap? (not commenting on originality)

Yes, you are correct.

At first glance, wartime logo with stirndruckfrei:

As always an asserted high-end visor but the images are absolutely insufficient for a global evaluation ... It is strictly necessary to see how it is under ... the sweatband

Best regards

Here is a no-questions-asked original (courtesy of Kurt).
This has everything you want to see in a real one:

Gentleman, Thank you all for your valuable opinions and input.
Stonemint, you are the eagle eye within the cloth headgear collecting community.
Many thanks to you and all our other forum members for your invaluable input.
I've been provided with further photos for evaluation. Please find attached extra photos.
Kind regards,
Steve

Wolf, thanks for the additional pics.
It is a Franky--that is an original Pekuro sweatband, but these are the easiest to remove and transplant into another cap (and the cap is no Pekuro, that is for sure).

My first impression of the cap was favorable but now I agree with Chris.

Plus why would Ludwig Wörz, a Peküro distibutor use this Deutsche Arbeit shield when they had their own shields printed as seen below.

So a hybrid created in the laboratory (a genetically mutated organism ) by someone who knew that Ludwig Wörz was a period retailer who sold PeKuRo’s visors, with his specific logo and denomination:

And moreover he also knew that this generic (but at the same time specific) Deutsche Wertarbeit logo was quite often associated with the same stirndruckfrei system in turn, as shown in the link I posted above (from the known specimens for the Army market I say in almost strict sense).

A real puzzle: he must really be a genius of evil, but fortunately for us he fell on the lack of ribbing and RZM tag, as now it is possible to see from the internal images.

I'm not a collector of political organizations’ visors and I confess my ignorance on this subject, but at this point I have to believe that the outside also shows some serious problems. What about the eagle and the fabric's shade?

Best regards
