$519.00

Original WWII German NAZI PARTY NSKK  Overseas Cap Brought Home By A U.S. Veteran Certified. The development of the NSKK, “National Sozialistisches Kraftfahr Korps” (National Socialist Motor Corps), can be traced back to 1923 when the SA introduced a “Kraftfahr Abteilung” (Motor Section) to transport personnel as required. In 1928 the SA Motor section was expanded to “Kraftfahrstaffeln” (Motor Squadrons). In an attempt to create a national motor corps, the NSAK, “National Sozialistisches Automobil Korps” (National Socialist Automobile Corps), was formed in April 1930 as a NSDAP auxiliary organization subordinate to the SA. In early 1931 Adolf Hühnlein was appointed as chief of the NSAK and proposed the name change to NSKK, which was officially accepted in April 1931. Shortly after the purge of the SA in the “Night of the Long Knives,” in June 1934, the NSKK was promoted to an official NSDAP organization, given independent status within the party and absorbed the SA Motor Squadron’s personnel.  This excellent example features a  machine woven NSKK insignia on front. The two side panels are joined at the front by two stylized NSKK aluminum buttons featuring an eagle holding the swastika centered inside a spoked wheel.  The high quality black wool exterior has no mothing or stains. The interior is lined with black cotton fabric. Has the original RZM tag inside (see photos) . the cap displays some slight storage age and wear. Overall, extremely fine.  Gettysburg Museum Certified (COA) provided. Rare 100% Guaranteed to be authentic. Sold for historic purposes only.
