Vice Admiral Schirlitz Cap

[Oberst Rudel]

Also note that if your friend contacted you to sell this cap - you are not permitted to sell it for them on e-stand.

Hi the cap is mine and i just bought days ago from the collector...but doesnt fit in my collection so ill put it on sale....

[Oberst Rudel]

Hi so finally its impossible i can prove the cap belongs to Schirlitz, but IMHO the Cap is original and good for the age, now ill put more photos abd later ill put on sale as it is...a really nice admiral cap. Ill appreciatte more opinions, best Oberst.

White top seems too small for the hat. Blue top too large?

Where is the Stirndruckfrei?

The major concern with any Admiral visor is that they are easy to create, in that all one has to do is remove the original (plain) visor and sew one with 2 rows of scrambled eggs.

Can you post pics with the sweatband up?

Hi All,

Hat anybody seen an album from Hermann Historica between 2000 and 2003? How do the pictures look like?

Maybe for Uniforms, the pictures are different, but having a look at a Catalog from 2000 about Medals(*), pictures look like the one below. How different.

Hi the photos i post arent from the catalog...the previous owner of the cap have this ones in his pc...but doesnt have anything that proves the cap was sold for HH...only the previous owner word....so is sold as it is...only a nice Vizeadmiral cap....br

The bill is 100% resewn and I don't like at all the bullion on the top.
The eagle and cocade are 100% original.
In my opion the cap is a franky made from original and Bundesmarine parts.
I would not have this cap in my collection.

Cheers,

I wouldn't either. There are plenty of salty caps that have not required the bill to be re - attached. The parts just do not appear to have belonged together.
Collector assembled in my humble opinion.

i think the pictures you need are for the interior...ill make it tomorrow and will updated....

[Oberst Rudel]

Now more the photos from the interior...i can do more without broken it...the interior visor doesnt look re-attach only the silk from inside could be re-seweed...but also could be in war time....IMHO, br
