Rest assured it's not what they do to donkeys in Iraq.....

The fact he even has his mate there to hold the donkey still.........

We also buy and trade your items and full collections!

What about these?

The seller says they are restored to original condition.
I really appreciate the guidance you have given!

Lets just say that there are far better helmets out there to spend your hard earned cash on

Even the shells on the ones above don't even seem right to be honest.

Thanks

He's not Danny....And before you ask, no, that's not a carrot he's feeding it....

P.S. Zuken, if you want original you don't want either of those helmets. Now if your thinking of doing a bit of re-enacting, well......

Dang. Im not really into buying stuff overseas, and Finland appears to have only fakes for sale

I found these two helmets at an auction website in Finland. As I am getting a good amount of money by selling one of my reindeers, I am interested in these two. The can is the same one in both pictures, and I believe it is the real deal.

I love this forum ! Where else can you interact with someone selling reindeer to buy militaria : ) Good luck, I hope you find a nice helmet for the money

I know this thread is 9 years old, but I just couldn't help myself. I have to say that is the most uniquely Finnish post I have ever read in a forum! Selling reindeer to buy militaria. That is just classic.

Santa falling on hard times? (no offence to our Finnish members....but it is now December so...you get it. Right?
