    Italian tropical M42 bustina

    What is the opinion about this M42 bustina?
    I had a good feeling with it but want to check it now.
    The emblem must be fixed later because there are no bleaching traces at the border.

          "six italians, dressed in rather unusual diving suits and equipped with materials of laughably little cost have swung the military balance of power in the Mediterranean in favour of the Axis".

                Oh oh,

                thank you Lafitte for your help. I trye to find out the words in the stamp. It´s really hard to read.
                I didn´t thought that the cap maybe isn´t a original one.

                    Hallo Hille, from the pics i can read only some words:

                    MAGAZZINO CENTRALE .......
                    ZAT (?)
                    REPARTO C(ONFEZIONI - RECUPERI ?)
                    BOLOGNA .......

                    If is it real what the second line is it a ZAT and the thirth line is it Reparto Confezioni e Recuperi probably the cap was made in the post war era and that can be use to the Air Forces for the summer uniform.
                    That m.42 type cap is it strange because is it a mix from troop model and officers model.

                      I think the hat is from Ebay seller zasu, he sold many other hats with the same stamp and they all appear to be post war reproduction probably for re enactors or movie industry.
                      Here is one other one :
