Commonly mistaken as "authentic" Repro B-2 Cap

There was a recent discussion about such caps on the militaria forum and I think we've touched on them here. Here is a perfect example of an early repro. For some reason, despite the extensive use of plastic instead of leather, these fool a lot of collectors. The trip is plastic and the visor is some weird synthetic thing. Horrible. I bought one online before Ebay was big and promptly returned it. You can see by the shirt this is a thrown together "set".
