It appears the polyester insignia melted when it was being ironed for mounting.

An interesting feature is the "UE" marked button. I believe this designation was used on early political items in the early days of the RZM. The insignia is obviously hideous, but just for everyone's edification, what is glaring wrong with the cap, besides the insignia and wrong buttons?

I too believe the cap MIGHT be worth looking at.. I at least dont think IT is a modern repro...JMHO Billbert

The trap is 100% fake. Based on the photos, I don't like the cap, either...
