Title Luftwaffe officer's summer peak cap
Nationality German
Period c 1936-45
Sold

This is a nice example, with its celluloid diamond intact and the silver print lettering, 'Sterndruckfrei / Deutschereichspatent'. It has a calf leather sweat band. It has a detachable white top, similar in construction to the white top navy cap of the same ilk.

There is some age distress to the rayon lining, but externally the hat is in excellent shape, with some oxidisation of the silver bullion cockade/wings.

These caps are not very common on the market, especially in reasonable shape like this.

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.

Sword arrived today. Fabulous. This is an excellent example of a fighting sword of its period, and a real gem. The 1828 Pattern is such a gorgeous sword, and this is a fine example. Even my bride is impressed and she doesn’t really get swords.

I collected my iron cross this am from the sorting office. Thank you for the medal; as before it's a very nice one. Thank you for your prompt service and I look forward to purchasing more in the future from you and your wonderful site.
