Constructed of tan cotton twill with a dark green wool upper band, this visor cap is made in the style of WWII-era German SA (Sturmabteilung) headwear. Featuring a silver-tone metal eagle insignia, smooth center button, pebbled side buttons, and a dark leather chinstrap. The interior features a light tan satin-style lining beneath a clear sweat diamond bearing a "Hölters Uniformen Berlin W50" maker mark, alongside a perforated vinyl sweatband with zig-zag edge stitching. Exhibits minimal handling wear with clean outer fabric and intact metal components. Interior lining and sweatband show crisp assembly with no significant staining, tearing, or age degradation noted. Measures approximately size 57-58 cm circumference, or a modern 7 1/4" size US. Offering an attractive presentation piece with detailed interior maker badging, this cap serves as a suitable filler or display item for militaria collections, theatrical production, or historical displays.
