I have found a dark maroon SS death squad cap in some of my fathers old WWII collectables. It looks like a graduation cap without the tassels---which were once attached on top. Is there a site where this could be authenticated? Thank you in advance for any help provided.

This site will do nicely.

Better photos would help, but from what I can see, it certainly looks to be authentic.

A dress fez designed for the 13. Waffens-Gebirgs-Division der SS "Handschar" (kroatische Nr.1). Lots picked up from Dachau storage but still worth a bit - my guess (without the tasle):about $600-700.

Your knowledge is truly amazing----THANK YOU. I may be able to fine the tassel if I new what it looked like. (pictures out there?) My collection is primarily piston powered war-bird related and I have no interest in keeping this item. Would it be wise to post it for sale on this site?

Thank you again.

Kirk,

If you are interested in selling it, please drop me a line (I sent you a PM offering to buy it a while ago).
