Germany. A Kriegsmarine Coastal Artillery EM/NCO’s Overseas Cap
An extremely well preserved example of a second war Kriegsmarine Coastal Artillery EM/NCO’s overseas cap; constructed of fine quality field gray wool, with fold-down panels featuring gently sloping, downward scallops to the front and sides. On the front of the cap is a textbook Kriegsmarine Coastal Artillery eagle, constructed of fine BeVo style machine embroidery on a green rayon backer. Directly beneath the eagle is a German tri-colour cockade, constructed of multi-coloured machine embroidery. The interior of the cap is lined with olive green-gray cotton, stamped “Robert Lubstein, Berlin, No. 55, 1940, 56” in black ink. The stamp is lightly faded but still visible and clearly legible. It measures 265 mm x 113 mm, in absolutely mint condition.
