A National Socialist Motor Corps General Field Cap
This is a very fine Nationalsozialistisches Kraftfahrkorps general issue Feldmütze constructed out of a green cotton/rayon blended fabric with fold down panels with gently sloping, downward scallops to the front and sides, and two vertically oriented (one ontop of the other) silvered aluminum buttons on the front, with the NSKK insignia in high relief, maker marked “RZM M5/82” (Steinhauer & Lück, Lüdenscheid). In the front center of the cap is a machine embroidered, hand attached, NSKK cap eagle insignia in aluminum bullion wire with on an olive-green backer, illustrating an eagle sitting, with its talons gripping a wreath swastika below, with a ribbon banner above inscribed “NSKK”. The cap also has a cardboard reinforced front visor and khaki/green coloured interior liner with a dark brown leather sweatband around the circumference of the cap. There are no markings anywhere on the cap besides a “57” stamped in black ink on the inside of the cap. The cap measures 235 mm x 200 mm and is in used, but otherwise very fine condition.
