Waffen-SS Officer's M43 Cap
Waffen-SS Officer's M43 Cap (Einheitsfeldmütze). This is a late-war Waffen-SS wool-rayon blend Italian gabardine construction M43-cap, the cap is piped in white as intended for officer's. The cap is having a BeVo-woven cap-eagle and skull nicely period factory machine-sewn in place. The dark-grey rayon lining material is in good condition, there is a small leather sweatband on the forehead section the cap is showing some minor traces of usage. The cap is not visible maker marked. Finding an original SS cap with period machine-sewn insignia is almost impossible, this is the best cap I've had on offer. Stunning original Waffen-SS Officer's M43 Cap in very good condition!
This cap originates from the collection of the recently closed Eyewitness Museum and was in display in the diorama in the last picture!
