Hey Guys, Need your help quickly please. SS cloth isn't my area of collecting. I came across this cap at a hole in the wall place and thought I would first find out if it's original before I purchased. I hope the pictures came out clear enough. Thanks for the help. Best!

Well, so much for quickly lol. I've had some time to look at other cloth skulls but not cloth eagles. I'm not liking the one I found, but would really appreciate the help. What about the cap, is it an original SS cap and worth buying. Thanks for any help rendered. Best!

Like you, I'm no expert on SS cloth, but I do know the skull is a reproduction. Sorry.

No, I think the whole thing is a reproduction.

In my experience,usually,buy not always,fake insignia leads to a fake hat or cap as well. I don't particularly like size ink stamping font also.Just my two cents.
