Early Wehrmacht period, older style teller shape German Infantry Visor Cap. This cap was purchased without the Eagle, but care was taken to reattach a matching aluminum-style eagle in the same location as the original pin holes. Overall condition shows a good deal of wear, roughly matching the level of wear of the World War 2 Oberfeldwebel Reichswehr Tunic the cap was purchased with from the son of a veteran. Otherwise there are no major stains, or tears, save one 1/4” hole in the top of the cap, and one inside-top. The visor cap’s lining and sweat band are in tact and in fantastic condition. The rigid sewn-in ring that gives the top of the cap it’s shape has a broken section in the back-right, but does not detract for the visor as a nice display piece. Overall a very nice early example that will remain with the tunic as part of a matching set (very likely by the same original wearer).

Hello,
I have an all original Early Heer Infantry Visor Cap, which hat size is consistent with Hitlers head. By gun speak I would assign it with a condition rating of Good. It is also signed on the inside by the US soldier who brought it back from the war. Would you know if there is any chance that it could have belonged to Hitler? I’ve had the thing for awhile but never really thought much of it, until this morning, when I was reading an article on yahoo, and saw a black and white picture of Hitler wearing the exact same hat. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
Sincerely,
Jason
