Swedish Pickelhaube, interwar period dragoner

[glennsche]

hi everyone,

man its been ages since i've been on this forum. glad to be back. for a number of years i was out of the loop collecting as i had moved from a cushy bay area california job to germany where salaries are much lower and the helmet budget was totally slashed. however this year i had my breakthru and i'm kind of "back" and recently got a few pieces, a soviet ssh36 used in spain and a swedish dragoner pickelhaube.

the latter of which i'd like to ask the good forum about. i dont know much about swede stuff. when i noticed the helmet i looked around as best i could and i dont think i got robbed but am curious to hear what these are worth. Weitze has a few but they're super expensive and based on expired auctions seem to be about 3x market. but not sure, nothing is what it was even 5 years ago.

anyways i'll post 'er here, and i'd love to hear what you think about it, and what you think one ought pay for such. heres a pic of her, and her also chilling with her new swiss neighbor, from around the same period. they've had a fun time getting acquainted, talking about hte old days, and making jokes how american toursists always think they're the same country.

many thanks in advance

greetings aus dem Kurpfalz
