Hi -

have you guys heard of an e.m. W-ss pz m43 with an 'ss-dienstmutze' ink stamp on the lining? Cap has two silver pebbled buttons, says the clerk at the out of state antiques mall (dealer wasn't in); and no pulldown loops for the earflaps. Only other mark is size. Insignia is a trap that isn't sewn thru the lining.

The 'kappe' stamping makes me very very wary. Sorry no pix but then i suspect none are needed :--- /

(more wariness: same dealer - according to the clerk - has 2 'erel stirndruckfrei' luft em peakers with diamonds he says are plastic not celluloid..... Too bad b/c one's white-piped!) thanks for help, david

Most SS M-43's I've seen generally only have a size stamp. I think some with maker's marks exist, but I don't think it was common.

pics pics and pics..!!!

The old story..

sorry guys no access to pix, just had a decription over the fone and the shop people weren't 'puter literate.
mr. abenheim and others on the Dark Side shake their heads which is usually good enough for me.
I'd hope it mt. have been the black ski-cap....
