Hi,
I do as well. I spent years looking for the real nice examples of helmets I could find and now I get more pleasure from acquiring a helmet like this one.... strange how things go.

Nice to see these items are still out there waiting to be found

Do you have allways rusted helmets found in caves ?

Hi lebus,
Unfortunately, all the helmets that were sealed up in the German tunnels have long since totally rusted away. There is nothing left now. I have a few examples tucked away but they are no more.

D, perhaps you can clear up an old tale that a dealer related to me many years ago, he stated that in the museum there is a room/stores etc, there are german helmets packed into this room from floor to ceiling, and every helmet has numerous rubber stamp marks on them, it goes that every year an official from France has to travel over and count all the helmets and stamp them all again, now i doubt if the whole story is true,but there is always some truth in tales like this, and i can imagine that if these helmets exist like this then someone would need to catalogue them periodically on a stocktake for inventory purposes, any ideas or a similar tales to be told????? cheers Dave

I love that chin strap! Looks like it would have fit over the chin and kept the helmet a bit more stable.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
