Feeling old Larry. Strained a muscle walking to China town after you dropped me off. Limped the whole way. My only bright spot is that the wife is older than me...lol
Thanks for the great time.

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Been 4 long years since I pull this one off the shelf for a proper reshoot with higher quality photos.

My first time seeing these Camo covers and they are awesome! You can tell why they used them definitely would be hard to spot.! Nice collection!
Thanks Canyon.by Giants77
These literal "scraps of zelt" sewn together, cost as much as if not more than a high quality SS helmet. Silly of course but they are beautiful to look at.

Really incredible! Always loved the look of these in period pics. Unfortunately way out of my league.
Here is a "modern" period pic

A really great mint cover you have there. I remember when these first surfaced many collectors wouldn't believe they were not reproductions, such was the stunning condition. But put aside the incredible story and examine the features, fabric, construction and sowing and it's all faultless. Your new photos are excellent reference aids too.
Thanks.
When these came out I was not sure either. But spoke to a lot of people and read all the threads on the different forums about this horde. Also spoke at length with the seller.
Certainly these were cottage industry items with probably many different local sub-manufactures.
Was lucky to get one. I wonder where they all went too? Or if they were all sold?
