Another Mining cap from E, for a Mining Director. Nice looking cap.

Dougd, i think this cap is fake.

The cap itself i guess is a late soviet normal production.
the insignia is wrong.
it belongs on the shoulder of a mine rescue uniform. and to my knowledge does not belong on a cap.

what would the purpose be of such big insignia on the wrong color backing.

i have had a railstation officer (with the red top) with the exact same insignia.

Re: Mining Service Headgear

Ser-g,

I trust your opinion on these postwar caps, so we will list it as suspect! I have to say the seller has had some other items that I would not be comfortable with.

Re: Mining Service Headgear

I have one similar to the first one posted except for oilcloth rather than bullion chin strap. Buttons are crossed hammers. Goes nice with uniform shown.

Re: Mining Service Headgear

Gee whiz Jeff...

That seems VERY cool. Really...

Please, show some more of that Mundir and it's cap - Macros of the collar insignia, small accouterments like buttons and the piping on the cuffs and breast would be exhilarating - speaking for myself of course. :D

Re: Mining Service Headgear

The chinstrap buttons on the cap have been picked up also from the corner of my cornea... :rolleyes:

I'm beginning to break a sweat.

Gotta go.

Re: Mining Service Headgear

Details of Tunic. Buttons are actually decoration only. The whole tunic closes with hooks on the right side. I call it my Jean Luc Picard tunic because it reminds me of the STNG formal officer tunic.
