Lot Description:A German WWII Post Office Peaked Cap
the German national postal service was a uniformed organization, whose uniform regulations were altered shortly after the NSDAP achieved political power in January of 1933. A dark navy blue wool construction visor cap, featuring a one-piece circular crown, piped in orange and whose internal stiffening wire is still intact, a body with seams to each of its cardinal points, a one-piece centre band, also piped in orange along its edges and whose vertical seam is to the reverse, and a blackened visor. Fixed to the forward seam line of the body is a stamped political-style national eagle. The vulcanfibre visor, with a raised lip along its forward edge, is blackened to its upper surface, and tan coloured to its underside. The interior of the cap is fully lined in tan-coloured oilcloth, and features a 40mm wide, tan alkor sweatband. The cap is roughly a size 57. -
