I can not remember if I ever posted this hat.

To me a bit quirky and not very dashing but I like them nonetheless.

Overall condition is good with some minor wear to some of the wool, a few tiny moth nips and some minor moth tracking.

Ersatz sweatband maker marked (inside) Friedrick Steinberg & Co Ludenwalde (STECO). Also marked to size 55 and 640. Not sure what 640 stands for but matches the ink stamp. Maybe "June 1940"?. Rest of ink stamp can not be read.

Fortunes of War Militaria has made another update to its site. Under the "One-Thousand Stitch Belt/Senninbari Belts" section, a nice Tiger Senninbari or "Tiger Belt" was just listed. These are highly desirable and authentic ones are becoming harder to find. Take a look….Cheers!!!
