WEHRMACHT CAVALRY OFFICER VISOR CAP
SOLD!
Nice quality field-grey wool and rayon blend construction visor cap with a subtle whipcord weave, a blue/green badge cloth centerband and dark yellow wool waffenfarbe piping to the crown edge and both the top and bottom edges of the centerband.
The internal crown stiffening wire and an internal vertical stiffener to the front center are both intact and give the cap a nice shape. The front center of the cap features a second pattern, stamped, polished natural aluminum national eagle. The front center of the centerband has a aluminium oak-leaf wreath encompassing a three piece national tri-color cockade.
The cap has a twisted silver/aluminum chin cord which is secured in place by two, small, silver washed, pebbled, alloy buttons. The cap has a black lacquered vulcanfibre visor.
The interior of the cap is fully lined in golden/tan rayon. The crown lining has a clear celluloid sweat diamond intact and it is well marked by the Deutsche Wertarbeit maker logo. The sweatband is still originally stitched in place, it is soft but shows some tears here and there, please see pictures.
The visor remains in overall very good condition with minimal age and usage toning. The cap is roughly size 58.
A very nice, and not common to find, cap.
