Kriegsmarine Admiral's tropical visorcap
海軍元帥熱帶沙漠用大盤帽.其底色為橄欖色.相當罕見.
This extremely scarce tropical visor cap was beautifully made using olive green ribbed cotton material and designed for the officer rank of Kommodore to Admiral.
The national emblem,wreath insignia and double row of laurel leaves are embroidered in gold celleon. Most likely custom made ouside Germany, this cap was produced to highest standards and is well preserved today. The canvas visor is reinforced with leather along both the brim and underside. The cap also has an ornamental gold chinstrap secured by two small gold anchor buttons.The interior has a fine cotton lining with maker's celluloid label and brown leatherette sweatband.
