M1943 Tank Generals Parade cap

I wanted to share this cap that just went through my hands (again) this weekend...my friend does great photography of caps!

The cap is a very rare M1943 generals parade cap for a general of the armor forces.

I have checked this visor out about ten times and it just keeps looking better and better. The collector who got this beauty is sure lucky and has great taste. Thanks Clete

hat

Here is a hat on E, listed as a M1943 tank generals parade cap...as I do not have it in hand I will not make a comment about it. You can compare to the one in the first post and draw your own conclusions.

conclusion is that the deuxieme cap is sold by an English seller who sells only reproduction.

cap

Originally yes, I think you are correct, but I think it was sold to a collector who is now having second thoughts and is selling it on E.
