A Model 1941 Deutsche Reichsbahn Schirmmütze General by C. Louis Weber. It is constructed out of the highest quality blue doe skin wool, with a black velvet center band and gold bullion piping. Attached to the obverse is a die stamped, aluminum based, gold gilded DRB cap eagle and a DRB multi piece cockade and winged wheel. To the sides are two peened on multi piece aluminum/steel gold gilded pebbled side buttons that hold the yellow and blue interwoven chin cord in place. The front also features a black lacquered visor peak with a cross hatched brown underside. The interior has a tan leather sweatband that is pined to the back. It also has a stitched on white-gray silk lining. The base of the lining has a clear diamond moisture shield over the manufacturers logo which reads, in silver: “C. Louis Wber Uniformen und Mützen Hannover Gegr 1862”. The top of the visor has several thinning spots to the wool. You will not find a better textbook example in this kind of condition!
