WW2 German 1937 Dated Army Cap - Refurbishment:
We will give more information on this cap after the refurbishment. This is one that came into our collection from a family in USA and it has a very interesting history behind it.
The cap was in a pretty sorry state after being used by kids for many years, it has lost its 'peak', chinstrap and chinstrap buttons.
We are refurbishing this for our own collection as we like to keep items with positive and strong provenance.
The original and supplied cap prior to any work:
