Germany. Schutzpolizei EM/NCO’s Shako

$475.00

A well-preserved Schutzpolizei EM/NCO shako, constructed of a sturdy matte black vulcanfibre shell with a protruding neck guard. The shell is topped by a flattened black vulcanfibre crown, securely held in place with a row of machine stitching along the outer circumference. The crown is flanked on each side by dual ventilation holes, each featuring blackened bronze mesh grommets. Affixed to the peak is a hollow pressed black leather channel through which is inserted a removable aluminum cockade, secured in place with a u-shaped prong, painted in a classic German black, white, and red tricolor motif. Also overlaying the channel is a large aluminum insignia consisting of a circular oak leaf wreath, bearing a German national eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika. Silvered bronze studs emanate from each side, and secure in place a black leather chinstrap, adjusted with functional aluminum buckles. The interior retains an intact brown leather liner, which I believe is a replacement. Overall an excellent++.
