A few additions to the theme:
Husaren-Regiment Fürst Blücher von Wahlstatt (Pommersches) Nr.5 senior NCO (left - wool band) and officer (right - black velvet band). The officer is especially interesting, being a very lightweight riding cap with a foldable visor, almost no internal structure...
Wow - just beautiful, Thierry! That exact regiment and configuration is high on my want list (I like the OYV/Fahnrich helmets). AoK has a nice one, but a little too dented on top for me. Your is a is a gorgeous example! Thanks for sharing.
If anyone has the results from Mr. Kube's most recent auction that they'd be inclined to share, I'd greatly appreciate it. : )
Very curious where some of that stuff landed...
The book is outstanding, especially where details of construction are concerned for all Imperial German wartime headgear!
The Uniformes image is very small - can you confirm the issue # and date? I'd love to find the full article.
I agree with Sander - the TK looks like a later, post-war version, and the general construction of the cap feels like the 1920's or so.
Uniformes once did an interesting little piece re: the Danziger TKs that I find helpful.
