Description
You are bidding on a SUPERB example of a 100% ORIGINAL WW2 German Kriegsmarine Cap Talley! This was issued to all NCO personnel, and was affixed to the “Donald Duck” style sailor cap.
The German EM/NCO Donald Duck style sailor’s cap featured a Cap Talley to identify the ship, flotilla or land unit the individual was serving with. Originally the script on the cap tallies was stitched in a gilt wire, however due to the potential of discoloration from tarnishing, regulations changed on October 29, 1936, indicating that all were to be sewn in a golden yellow celleon thread, instead.
Made of black rayon with a gold/yellow thread, this Cap Tally is a VERY NICE example. In used condition, it does feature some marks, wear, and stains, but is otherwise SUPERB! Clearly indicates, “Marineflugabwehrschule”. Makes for a FANTASTIC display!
