  • Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice 1936 Officers pattern Tschako, with the late pattern police green wool body and black leather trim. It has a very fine quality police officer eagle with aluminum cockade (often missing) and black leather chinstrap. A great Polizei helmet (shako) as used by the metropolitan police! Unlike some of the more common ones found trimmed in brown for rural police, this one is with black trim for the municipal police.


    Interior is excellent, the leather is supple and shows only light, and there is a paint stamp on the inside of the crown with size 55 marked. It is also marked with the retailer and maker on the inner dome top:


    Robert Lubstein
    Berlin NW 21, Alt Moabit 105
    GES. GESCH.
    FABRIKMARKE
    EREL
    BERLIN
    Fiber-Tschako


    Vents are in perfect condition with working slide closure on both sides. With both the Maker and Retailer located in Berlin, we can probably assume that this was issued to a Police Officer in the Berlin Metropolitan area.


    Overall it is offered in excellent condition from one of Germany's best manufactures of the time! Ready to display!
