The Wilson History and Research Center proudly introduces the first volume in an exciting new series dedicated to rare and unusual 20th-century headgear. This inaugural edition focuses on soft caps from the German Third Reich, showcasing hundreds of exceptionally rare and previously unseen pieces.
Spanning over 200 pages in a high-quality hardbound format, this volume features expertly captured digital photography that reveals intricate construction details and insignia with remarkable clarity. The authors were granted exclusive access to some of the world’s most prestigious private collections, allowing them to present these historic items at an unprecedented level of quality and detail.
Whether you are a beginner or an advanced collector, this book offers a unique opportunity to study caps that have rarely—if ever—been publicly displayed, many of which were previously known only through grainy black-and-white period photographs. Each piece is carefully identified and described, providing valuable insight for collectors, historians, and researchers alike.
From headgear worn by prominent leaders such as Hitler, Göring, and Dietrich to rare examples from obscure paramilitary and civil organizations, this volume delivers an extraordinary visual and educational experience. Designed as both a reference guide and a learning resource, it emphasizes the importance of firsthand visual study in understanding the craftsmanship and historical significance of original items.
