I remember seeing an all original qvl helmet sell for a few thousand dollars in good condition.

Haha your right but it's a maker that's not very common so I guess it is rare to have. Too bad it's not in its original condition that's the big issue.

I know a lot of helmet collectors that look for maker marks especially in certain kinds they seek. Same thing in the bayonet world. Most buy the helmet for its quality, and complete nature to each his own. timothy
