I agree with Ben on this one. The mothing looks genuine. I have seen many caps with acid used to fake mothing. THis does not appear to be the case with this hat. The materials appear to be period quality. Few have ever had a chance to handle an undisputed example of this hat-including yours truly. I do like what I see and think it is a genuine period piece.

Absolutely nothing looks suspicious to me. Thumbs up!!! I have a Dutch NSB cap which is moth eaten at the top and in prestine condition on the inside. I agree its an unfortunate storage issue which caused this damage, but nevertheless an interesting and imho a good piece! NickComment

The color of the field grey trikot seems interesting in this case. That is, it has a bluish hue typical of the pre-1939/40 uniforms. If the piece is authentic, you have achieved quite a coup.Comment

In a matter as this, I would also fetch the expertise of Derek Chapman, from whom I have ascertained much about this fabled headwear.Last edited by Donald Abenheim; 06-21-2006, 07:53 PM.Comment

Many thanks for your comments gents,
I would realy send the cap over to everyone for a hands on, its a one looker in hands. Maybe I got the color wrong in the pics.
Here is an aditional one which I think matches the color very good.
With all the best, JensLast edited by zbv500; 04-01-2007, 12:58 PM.Comment

Hi Ben,
here are your pics.
I just took one of the deatheads front because its hard to remove this one. I think this is a fake.
The eagle might have a chance as you said, but Iam not to good on these.
Thanks JensLast edited by zbv500; 04-01-2007, 12:58 PM.Comment
