Pale pink cap band, Mid blue crown, pale pink piping to crown and to upper edge of cap band. Officers superior cream /tan silk lining, with light tan underside to peak. Both cockades with silver and blue Bavarian and Reichs are present .. Sweat band has light wear. The pink of the cap has faded though the mid blue colour hasn't I think that the pink has undergone a chemical change in its colour it is now lighter ,which I think improves it !!! ) . There are a few tiny moth holes in the cap and moth tracking Thus the price A nice Bavarian officers original cap from a Chevauleger Regiment that presents very well..

Good original Infantry NCO's walking out peaked cap probably from around 1910. The Schirmmutz has officers type construction with cross hatched rear to the peak. Tan leather sweat band and what looks like a waterproof light canvas type lining. A typical ''Dunkel Blau'' cap with a blue crown a red cap band and piping to both the crown and top of cap band. The lining has a just about readable tailors Magdeburg address stamped to the inside crown of the cap and a paper label to " Gebhardt 8th comp 3 Magdeburg Inf Rgt .66." The cloth appears to be of Melton quality throughout The cap comes with its two Cockades. The upper for the Reich and the lower for the state of Magdeburg which is in the single colour of plain green ( which is a very rare example ) The standard Prussian black & white cockade were adopted later. One moth bite to the crown and moth tracking sadly all over the place The shape and form of the cap displays very well….It is a super looking little cap. Not rare but with the full data on the owner it is a fine researchable example..
