Need help! SS Panzer side cap - genuine or fake?

Hi. New member from Australia looking to increase my german WWII collection. I have been offered what is said to be a genuine SS Panzer side cap and would really appreciate your expertise and opinions.

The cap passes black light testing and insignia appears not to have been added at a later date. I am not sure about the soutache though although it is stiched through the cap at bothe ends.

What do the experts say?

WWII photobook of my grandfather served in Rgt. 616 WH 16

Hello friends of WWII history,

today I want to present you my grandfather's photobook. It is called "Erinnerungen" (Memories)

My grandfather Heinrich König served in Regiment 616 WH 16 as a butcher and a cook. He was born on November 17th 1906 in Castrop-Rauxel, Northrine Westfalia, Germany and died on October 20th in 1994 in Recklinghausen, Northrine Westfalia, Germany at the age of 87 years.

Before WWII he worked in his own butcher store, after the war he worked in his butcher store as well for some years. Later he worked for an assurance company until his retirement.

I had many great years with my grandfather, the best one could wish, so this thread is dedicated to him.

I publish all photos without a copyright imprint, but the copyright to all photos belong to my father MD. Dr. Heinrich König as his still living son.

None of the photos is commented on the back, so I don't know where they've been taken. If someone can tell anything about a photo please feel free to leave a comment.

I hope you like these photos.

Cheers, Martin
