    Visor Help

    Hello Guys,

    I am trying to help a friend understand this visor. SS is not my area so would be grateful for any constructive comments.

            It sure looks to be small, very small.... that may just be the way it is folded and photographed? does it measure up to a size 56 as it is marked?
            I am far from an expert but am not liking the eagle and TK very much..... wonder what others will have to say? the TK looks like it is trying to be a M1 52.

              The insignia is bogus, but I believe the cap to be original!

                Imprints on the middle ring of piping from prior insignia. May be a re-banded Heer.

                  Empty holes in the visor, and what appears to be glue. Never a good sign.

                    Kev, the insignia are both bad as you say ... the skull's an attempt at an Assmann

                      In post #3, where is the middle band of piping?

                        Well the dents in the middle of the branchcolour are a dead give away, have you checked the pasteboard innersight of the visor for extra holes ( besides the ones that are already there for the skull )?

                            I don't think its re-banded, just had a Heer wreath applied to it at one time, which is not uncommon for bring-backs. I think I can see the outline of the wreath on the velvet band. A glue repair isn't "always" a bad sign, as they are often found on original caps. A faker skilled enough to re-band a cap does not have to use glue...

                              Or maybe even a police insignia wreath ... curious what he'll find on the inside of the pasteboard band ....
