Ruiz,

It looks like an early war period 'ushanka' fur cap...original or not is up to varying opinions (I am glad members who post are good at following the rules of the forum)...I for one like it, but you might want to get opinions of others as well.

Hope you do not mind that I edited the title of the thread.

I am happy it is original too. Most likely worn by an Officer.

Cheers, Ade.

:thumbsup I do not collect Soviet anymore, but if I did, I would be looking for a place to display it and adding it to my collection.
