Original U.S. WWII US Army Officer’s Visor Cap by Luxenberg Of New York

Regular price $495.00

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. WWII U.S. Military items made by The firm of Morry Luxenberg of New York, New York are perhaps one of the most desirable makers of U.S. WWII Uniforms and Insignia. Luxenberg items were revered during the period for their absolute astounding quality and attention to detail. Luxembourg’s customers included many General officers of all branches who preferred the quality items the Luxenberg firm produced during the war. This visor cap, in winter green doeskin/melton wool, was manufactured by Luxenberg Military Tailors located at 485 Madison Avenue, New York.

The cap is of the highest quality and in very good condition with the iconic crush shape. The sweatband is also embossed Luxenberg with address. The crown of the hat also bears the Luxenberg logo. Of note is that the chinstrap is the style that goes fully around the head with a buckle in the rear which were very popular with pilots and these were a deluxe addition which was a clear sign of a top quality hat. There is no size label, but we did notice a number 7 written on the lining under the sweatband, and measurements have confirmed that it is about a size 7. As with most we see, the original celluloid sweats shield on the inner crown has turned brown over the years.

The Army Offcer’s Cap eagle is also a Luxenberg-made item, bearing the Luxenberg name on the reverse in the well known stylized font.
