Attractive - and rarely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe) officers'-type visor-cap eagle that is neatly hand-embroidered on beige-white-coloured wool as was specifically used for the white-topped LW officers'-type visor-caps (ie. 'Sommer-Schirmmützen')

This is a truly very attractive - and actually quite rarely encountered! - example of a WH (Luftwaffe) neatly hand-embroidered officers'-type visor-cap eagle (ie. 'Adler für Sommer-Schirmmützen') that is executed on beige-white-coloured wool as was specifically intended for usage on the various white-topped LW-officers-type visor-caps (ie. 'Ausgeh- o. Sommer-Schirmmützen für Offiziere der Luftwaffe') and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem just minimally used- ie. once cap-attached-), condition. The eagle comes in a truly very nice condition overall: it shows some minor age simply caused by decades of storage and/or minimal wear. The neat piece - which has an approximate wingspan of approximately 6,8 cms. - shows a (typical copper-based 'backing-plate' that only has one attachment prong in place: the other has been broken-off as can be seen on the pictures). The eagle has great detail (extraordinary embroidery!) and can of course excellently be used to restore or complete any white-topped, LW-officers'-pattern visor-cap. Simply a truly rarely encountered piece of LW cloth-insignia that is with certainty accordingly priced!
