You’re the man. I am grateful to be able to be the custodian of this unique piece and carry on a small part of Steve’s legacy.

Brian it’s looking great so far and I’m appreciative your eagle eyes caught the rear visor as well. Thankful you have the skill, talent, experience and patience to repair these. Can’t wait to see the finished helmet!

I know next to nothing about guns Dane but that is beautifully marked. My compliments!

Very nice Amy. I have one or two of those spike attachments in the old beasts like that in my collection if I recall. My compliments on another nice find!

Hi Alan If you don’t mind sending me the contact info that’d be great thank you. Doug

I’m looking for this book if anyone has a copy they’d like to sell. I can’t find a copy on the usual sites.

Thanks for the tour through your collection and your hospitality James! I had a great time, my only regret was it was too brief! Maybe if I am there for an Oilers Wild game one day we can spend more time with your amazing collection. Some real rarities and what a great variety of helmets...

Nicely named piece Dane!

Fantastic!

Beautiful ensemble, should be the cover of a book Mike!

That’s a beauty Brian! One of my favorite regiments!

Enjoy the BBQ and hot dogs my American friends! Happy 4OJ!

What an eye popping ensemble Charles my compliments!

I put a bid in on this one but didn’t pursue it as I don’t collect loose insignia as a rule but who can’t love a skull like this. Congratulations!
