British tankers helmet

[Jerry B]

I have seen this one for sale and I wondered what sort of money they go for?

I sold one very much like this on ebay about 10 years ago for about £70 if I remember rightly. Probably gone up a fair bit since then like everything else.

This one is for sale for a bit more than that, but not a lot more and I might buy it, though I will have to speak to er indoors first.

Looks really good to me as well and I'm sure the price is good, but sadly she who must be obeyed has gone to sleep and as I have been a bit spendy lately she might not take it very well if I buy another helmet without mentioning it first. Mind you she will pull a face and say yes dear as always but best not to push it.

I found a Canadian example on ebay for £216.

If you can get them for £55-65 I always think that's a bargain, but £65-75 is probably the real value. It does have a nice label, but if it had the leather scrum then £125+. Considering there quite a rare helmet they don't seem to fetch a high price when put up against a similar hard to find helmet.

G'day Jerry
Bit different to my one, different model? as this one is lacking the earphones housing.
Strange the paper tag is on the sweatband?

Thanks for answers and the info.
