Really nice honest patina, you know this one saw war service. Good textbook example after a run of duds on the forum recently.

What a real DD SS in this forum section ? I had to blink twice. No three times. Top helmet Michael.

Thanks Gents.

Yes, nice to have a "one looker" (without conceit) as this one does't really require much analysis/vetting.

Hoping to find out a bit more history on it at the upcoming Max Show.

Thanks Jake. I have lot's of goals i put together as a kid. This one is now completed. The other three goals were:

1) One of each of all the major German combat awards (just one or two more to go)
2) One of each of all the major participants Rifles (80% complete)
3) One of each of all the major participants Pistols (30% complete)

So while technically I'm done with helmets, I still have other things to keep me occupied!

Very nice pickup Michael! Helmets and rifle collecting for me will never end

As said elsewhere - super pleased for you. Without a doubt a 'one looker'.
You're never done with helmet collecting - i guarantee you will find something else you like ;-)

Thanks Nick.

You are correct. I'm sure I will find a helmet I like or can upgrade here or there. Just that all the gaps have finally been filled.

Now to just let some helmets go!

That's a beauty Micheal, I'd like to own one but a little out of my price range, thanks for sharing
