A SUPER, ORIGINAL THIRD REICH PIONEERS SIDE CAP/OVERSEAS CAP.

In green wool with canvas type lining , this is a great, early side cap. Obviously shows evidence of honest wear and there is a little moth beside the bevo green eagle to the front. However, this cap just oozes ‘real’ and ‘been there’. The cap has date and makers markings inside, Osang etc 1940, as well as the size 56. The front has a bevo National colour roundel machine stitched onto the crown. Over it is the black chevron designating this as Pioneer. Above this is the bevo small eagle and swastika.As previously mentioned, there is a little mothing right beside the eagle and a few more tracks to the left hand side. Despite this, the cap has great form and is a great early example before they removed the coloured Waffenarbe designations.
