Not quite, if you are somewhat knowledgeable in experimental and modified US lids. Would love to have one of these, but until I win the lottery, I'm stuck without. I do own a number of experimental lids though, with 2 on hand from WW1 with another on the way, and a lid that was tossed around latter, post war/KW time frame.

I know where there are two of these, unfortunatly, their owners will have to have them pulled from their cold dead fingers so, since I can't get either of those two... I keep searching. This is one of four helmets on my MUST HAVE list.

You can take comfort (how ever small) in the notion, that its the hunt that matters ;-)

So true, once you bag your quarry, you only admire it for a time before the blood boils for yet another trophy.

I really like the tub pic's. It has a portrait of Dolfy on the left. I wonder if she put it there or if AH himself had it there to look at himself while he took his bubble bath's!!!!!!
