From the warelics thread. This one I can believe is authentic despite no photo of the interior.

No "duel"--I am just pointing out that there are real visors that had mottled "fuzzy" wool visors, so based on that alone, a PL visor should not be immediately discounted.
I am 100% confident in both the visors I inspected.
I never inspected the 2 that lead off this thread.NEC SOLI CEDIT

Wool Visors of course existed, but look at the Wool from the Visor what started this Thread....not for me. And then i would like to see a Reichsleiter Visor in Wool, not a Generalgouvernement one. Beside the Wool, the Hat has some other Issues too....Piping to me is a Joke, and the complete look and Shape from the Hat not makes it any better. When i am ask to put 20K on the Table then i want in return something PERFECT, with not a single Issue.

At later Political Caps heavy Wool (Ersatzmaterial ) was of course used. But there is a big Difference between the Wool from Post 1 and the Wool from Post 33. Cap in Post 1 is Fake, and not even a good one. That Crap of Fuzzy Wool on that Hat is nothing i would want anywhere near me. Beside that, there are a lot other Things wrong with it. I would really like to see just one single Reichsleiter Visor in that Type of Wool what is proofen original. Never seen one the past 35 Years.WWW.EDELWEISS-ANTIQUES.COM

Originally posted by stonemint View PostRegarding the other one, I have not seen it in person, but I have seen that type of wool used in other hats, ie, Osteinsatz (as Wim stated they were used in the GG).
I did examine this one in person, and it was 100% right as rain:
