German WWII > Headgear > Visors > Army Visors

Here's a nice quality private purchase visor with a field-grey wool and rayon blend body and crown with a blue/green badge cloth centerband with yellow wool waffenfarbe piping to the crown edge and both the top and bottom edges of the centerband. The front center of the cap has a stamped, second pattern, aluminum, national eagle. The front center of the centerband has a hand embroidered oak-leaf wreath in silver/aluminum wire threads encompassing a low relief, three piece, national tri-color cockade mounted on a cut-out, blue/green badge cloth base. The national tri-color cockade consists of a fluted black alloy base, a silver washed alloy roundel and an inserted red felt centerpiece. The wreath and cockade are neatly handstitched to the cap. The cap has a bright, 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 with a raised lip near the forward edge. The interior of the cap is fully lined in grey/green rayon. The interior crown lining has a clear celluloid sweat diamond 95% intact and is maker marked. The leather sweatband is mostly all present but has partly separated from the cap towards the front, see pics.
