Historical Description
An original Belgian Army officer’s visor cap dating from the prewar to early Second World War period, attributed to the Administration branch. The cap retains its elegant interwar Belgian military styling with khaki wool construction, officer-quality braided chin cord and Belgian national cockade to the front.
Particularly attractive is the gilt “A” insignia on the cap band, denoting the Administration service branch. The cap is further identified to Lt. Demanet, adding an appealing personal attribution to the piece.
The visor cap displays clear period wear and honest service use throughout. Several moth holes are present to the exterior, mainly on the top and visor area, while the interior shows notable age, wear and tear consistent with prolonged storage and use. Despite this, the cap remains structurally sound and presents very well as a genuine untouched Belgian officer’s headdress from the era.
Original Belgian officer caps from the prewar and WWII period are increasingly difficult to encounter, especially named examples with branch insignia still intact.
