My only Mutze,... from the same source as my damaged Hanoverian but in surprisingly good condition! Not so much as one moth hole! My wife is a theatrical costumier and tells me that the velvet band on this is the finest quality velvet she has ever seen - not available in our throwaway society! Obviously Saxon, obviously reservist, but I have no idea of the regiment. The white silk liner is a little dirty and has seen some use, as has the leather sweat band, unfortunately no monogram and no crowns!
Apologies for the dark pictures, my available lighting makes it difficult to distinguish between the black velvet and the very dark green of the body. The small brass button at the rear of the liner is unmarked and here are no maker marks at all that I can see.
Ideas on regiment gratefully recieved,
Cheers all,
Steve
