ITEM #8316  

#8316-HEER INFANTRY NCO VISOR CAP: Nice example of the standard issue visor cap as worn by a Heer Infantry NCO. In the teller form, it has the distinctive "pinch" and crown wire removed as typically associated with NCO wear. It is produced of field grey wool trikot having a dark green wool band and white wool piping. The front has a nicely matched set of Heer 2nd pattern insignia in matte aluminum above a chinstrap of black patent leather having rounded Luftwaffe style buckles. The beautifully matched interior has a lining of rust colored chintz with a plain cello diamond (size marked 56) brown visor underside and brown leather sweatband. The underside of the sweatband is nicely marked to Infantry Regiment 118 along with a "1" clothing grade (dress) stamping. The cap shows light use & age, having a few moth nips (mainly hidden under the rear fold) and some light soiling to the supple sweatband. Condition II+ $550.00
