Original Imperial German WWI Prussian Dark Green Hussar Officer Visor Cap - 11th Hussar Regiment (2nd Westphalian Regiment)

Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of an Imperial German Prussian EM/NCO Visor Cap (Schirmmütze), in the early 20th Century Darg Green. The later M1907/1910 version would move to the Feldgrau (Fieldgray) that was seen mostly during the war. The cap constructed of dark green wool, which was the standard color for all states except for Bavaria, which used their own blue color. It has Ponceaurot (poppy red) wool band and age white piping, which indicates the 11th Hussar Regiment (2nd Westphalian Regiment). The front of the cap bears a Black, White and Red Reichskokarde (Imperial Cockade) on the front of the crown, with a Black and White Cockade on the cap band for the Kingdom of Prussia. The interior is lined with tan cloth, with a light brown oil cloth sweatband. Size is approximately a US 7 (56cm). Condition is very good, with colors well retained, and just a few areas of moth damage but other than that this cap is one of the best we have seen. Ready to displ
