Allgemeine SS Officers Peaked Cap: Superb reproduction Nazi German SS Officers Schirmmutzen Visor Cap. In SS black private purchase material and silvered Deaths head and eagle.

By August 1939 there were 485,000 members of the Allgemeine SS (including 180,000 men in the so-called "Reserve-Standarten"). Approximately 170,000 were called up for service in the Wehrmacht and 35,000 others into the Waffen-SS. Only the 100,000 full-time SS leaders in the main offices had been exempted from the military service. Here the actual history of the Allgemeine-SS ends, since the war would ensure that the Waffen-SS would completely eclipse the Allgemeine-SS, both in size and importance. But the main offices of the Allgemeine SS, which were originally only staff departments of the SS main office (the so-called Reichsführung-SS) responsible for the coordinating the day-to-day operations of the Allgemeine SS, were officially responsible for the members of the Waffen-SS also in the war years.

This is an aged and worn reproduction German Waffen SS Officer Visor Cap or Schirmmutzen in black material with white piping. The typical German Waffen SS officers peaked cap. It is piped in white and has all the features of a private purchase cap. Superb quality material, metal rim band, which has been removed by the owner (a popular modification), soft internal padding, cork head padding and well worn headband. There are several moth holes to the left hand side.

Notice the texture and colouring of the peak representing typical vulcan fibre construction, the metal eagle with swastika and deaths head and aluminium bullion chinstraps all suitably worn and suitable aged 60+ years.
