Dave,
Please! Its my fault, i got defensive and jumped the gun; not really advertising, I rely so much on word of mouth that I really can get nuts. My bad!
As for cloth, I know alot, but I know alot of guys who would run me into the ground with this stuff (happily they mostly live in russia and i tend to buy from them so we are cool).
as for this cap, I would say go with Randal Stewart; the era of late cold war soviet caps is really his kingdom; i enjoy his site when i want to know about odd (usually civilian) caps I might see on E or other places.
My only question though is why would the coal mining industry use both light blue and royal blue for piping?

ps-I know a guy who has an M1945(1947) Mining "Generals" (for lack of the proper title) Victory Parade style tunic in his collection...i have been trying to get it for about 2 years now, but no luck.
