Ww I Imperial German Officer Field Grey Crusher Visor Cap – Rare For Sale

---

A World War One, Imperial German, Field Grey, Field “Crusher” Visor Cap. A Very Nice and displayable mid to late war crusher cap with Green cap band to reflect all branches per the 1915 Uniform regulations. Cap is made of Field Grey wool with stiff, leather visor and leather chinstrap. Chinstrap is complete with buckle and both sliders (keepers) and is firmly attached with both side buttons. Visor is firmly attached and shows signs of crazing. There are two wear areas to the front clearly caused by the chinstrap but, are difficult to see when the chinstrap is on top of them. Both officer grade cockades are present on front. One Imperial and one for the state of Prussia. Leather sweatband shows service wear but, is still complete and attached. Cotton lining has a name written to inside. There is a small “55” written to the underside of visor. Cap shows natural wear and has about 6-7 small moth nips worth noting (see photos). About 5-6 on the green band in the upper area and about 2 very small ones on wool near band. Most of the ones on the band are not noticeable when the hat is displayed as the top of the cap comes over this part of the band.

This is still an Exceptional cap that displays quite well. Field caps such as this are difficult to come by as most were either worn out or discarded after the war. Guaranteed Original.

As any collector of the Great War knows, German Field Grey uniform items are becoming very valuable and one of the things that are appreciating the fastest with the Centennial approaching. Not only is this an awesome historical artifact but, an investment opportunity as well.
