WWI Imperial German field service cap (Schirmmützen) reproduction.
Lovely reproduction of the standard early WWI Imperial German field service cap worn by NCOs. Field grey wool cap with a superb high-front shape with red piping, leather peak, red cap band plus wire cockades and leather chin strap. Satin lining with acetate sweat-shield printed with authentic looking maker information. A very good example for display or re-enacting.

Luftwaffe enlisted/other ranks summer "white top" peaked/visor cap.
A rare find! Slightly "salty" looking Luftwaffe summer weight "white top" service dress cap for an enlisted man. Classic waffle pattern cotton. top is well used and quite grubby – might clean up but that's for the buyer to decide. Black composite peak and leather chin strap show typical surface crazing. Yellow waffenfarbe has a couple of tiny moth nips, but these are concealed by the chin strap. Good aluminium eagle and winged cockade. Failry clean inside and nice sweatshield maker marked to Tiller of Wien (Vienna). The enlisted version of the cap is often more difficult to find than the officers. Lovely, well used example.

Extremely rare Luftwaffe enlisted man's visor cap for the esteemed Hermann Göring Regiment.
Original examples of this rare cap very rarely surface, and this example is in absolutely superb condition. Made from officer quality gabardine wool and featuring the white waffenfarbe of the Hermann Göring Regiment, the cap has a polished visor with green checkerboard pattern underneath and a patent leather chin strap. The orange cotton lining with undamaged sweatshield lists a Berlin maker, size 56-1/2 and a date of 1938. It is additionally marked under the sweatband with the stamp of the 16th Battn. IV Regt. Hermann Göring. Light tan leather sweatband shows only light wear and there is very light soiling to the white piping from handling. Aluminium eagle and winged cockade, with painted finish showing light wear. An outstanding example of a very rare and highly-desirable cap.
