            This cap has not a blueish lining - probably it is the Quality of the Pictures that makes the lining look like this but the example in the other thread has the Brown Cotton lining and it is made by Georg Teufel & Sohn a well known SS contractor.

                Personally I feel the insignia has been recently applied in my opinion

                  Hi billbert, Thanks for your comment! I got it from a dealer from whom I already bought quite a few very nice items. He said he got it from a picker so no history unfortunately. The price was relatively reasonable for a good cap.

                  So generally what would be the consensus or the advice here. I would prefer to keep it but want to get my money back should I ever decide to sell it.

                  Thanks in advance!

                    It TRUELY is the blind man and the elephant on opinions knowledge level and distortions on photographs...I have handed and owned several caps thru the years...IMO Its most likely AOK...If you are happy and it didnt cost too much I d say keep it...BUT when its time to sell it be prepared for ALL sorts of opinions..People will often beat you down to get a ROCK bottom price whether the think/know its real or not...and the OLD GUARD is quickly changing of people whom have acquired right from the vet that brought it back or the original owners...JMHO Billbert
