Hello all, anybody have any thoughts on this HJ flak cap? Real? Price? Also has anybody seen pics of Hitler Youths wearing them? thanks for any replys.
If this is the cap you are looking at it appears to be a period original from the photos shown. Others here will comment that have more knowledge than I do about headgear, I am mainly a cloth insignia collector. The price of $325 is about average for dealer sites IMO. The lowest dealer site price I found after a quick search was $300 but the condition of that offering is not as good. I've seen these sell for less at the WAF Estand if you are patient. It is helpful when inquiring about items if you upload photos, not all member may be familiar with websites and pictures allow for more input. For period photos of this style cap in wear see these threads. http://www.hj-research.com/forum/f34/flakhelfer-anti-aircraft-flak-battle-badge-7891/ http://www.hj-research.com/forum/f34/flakhelfer-portrait-6511/
