Here is my small collection of helmets. I don't really collect by era, so I have a widespread timeline of lids. The only collecting parameters I have is that the lid must be steel, and either military or civil defense. I do like Brodie-style helmets, and I would like to get a complete sampling of them, if that's possible. The German helmet in the pictures is a repro, but it is the only one. If I have any gems, I guess they would be the Italian M33 and the blue American M17. Anyway, I enjoy my collection, as humble as it is, and would have displayed it upstairs, but somehow I got out-voted by the wife. I'm not sure how that happened...
I feel your pain Usagi, my modest collection is relegated to the basement as well. Marriage is like a chess game. The husband is the King, moving only one space at a time, and always hiding behind a pawn. The wife is the Queen, moving anywhere she wants with no restrictions and can quickly kill anything else on the board. L'amour est grand!
