    Here is the newest Member in my Collection. A very nice, only slight worn GBJ Officer Visor from Erel, belongs to a very well known Officer. Hope you like it

        Yes, as almost on any other GBJ Visors i have seen till now. Visor is a perfect fine GBJ straight from the Family, absolut nothing wrong with it.

          Forgot, and there is absoult no Shadow from a Eagle and its only one super small hole and the other you not even see. I have 11 GBJ Officer Visors, i just looked on each one very close, 7 out of the 11 have same holes like this one. From the 7 i got 6 out of Family Hands or the Hand from the Officer who has worn the Visor.

            Great cap! worn but in excellent condition.

            I saved the ebay pic and you can see that the higher position is where the eagle sat for most of it's life. I suspect the Officer bought it from the store and immediately moved the eagle and added the edelweiss.

                    Not uncommon to find on GJ visors, especially as the Edelweiss was not authorized for wear on the visor until 1939,
                    Here is an EM visor--you can clearly see the old holes:

                        I know those waffenrocks were tailored to be close fitting, but this one looks especially tight.
                        Great photo.

                          Am I missing something here?

                          Did you get the Visor straight from the Family or from Ebay or the Family sold it via ebay???
                          Ben VK wrote that he "saved" the old pics from Ebay (without eagle)

                          Anyway a nice Visor.

                            No you did not miss anything. Bought from the Family, who try to sell it at Ebay and i got it from them before it was sold off there. Thanks to Ben. Now you still miss something?
