Heer EM/NCO sidecap with period sewn insignia

Textbook Heer EM/NCO sidecap in untouched condition. Nice example maker marked and dated in size 57. The cap is a untouched example with factory sewn insignia. The wearer modified it by having a line of stitching added in the top resulting in a smarter look. The cap had its soutache removed as per regulations. Very nice and textbook example!
