WH (Heer) Artillery Officer's Crusher style Visor Cap (Schirmmütze). Visor caps were a standard item for all armed forces personnel during the Third Reich period. Although enlisted personnel were issued their caps from government supplies they were also permitted to purchase privately tailored caps. This is a nice privately purchased Officer's cap with leather visor being a so called 'Crusher' cap (Alter-Art). The celluloid manufacturers sweat-diamond ('Raute') is present but damaged. The cap has no visible size markings, the size is approximately 54cms. The visor cap is piped in the red 'Truppenfarbe' (branch-colour) for Artillery personnel. The simulated leather sweatband is in good used condition. The cap is complete with its original flat-wire woven cap-eagle and cocarde, both nicely hand-sewn to the cap. The cap shows normal traces of usage and wear and some small (moth)damages, see photos. The cap has a great shape and combat worn look. Stunning original crusher!
