Hello Steve. I believe it to be of the Polish style adler, it is not Prussian nor is it Imp. Russian. Just my "two-cents" worth... 8-) Cheers!

I, too, must agree that this is a Fireman's kepi. Just my opinion though, could be Miner's guild but I believe that the helmet in the in the crest kinda gives it away. 8) Rob.

Sweet!!! :bravo:

Welcome to the I.C.U. of the haube collecting world Dave! I'm afraid that once you've begun this journey there's no turning back! This site will be of invaluable assistance in your future "pursuits". Good-luck and good hunting! 8-)

Gentlemen, U.S. involvement in the First World War was a foregone conclusion once the BANKING industry in this country began to provide war-loans to the British and French. The U.S. sent troops, at the behest of the major financiers, when it began to look as though the loans would be defaulted...

Nicely done, Edwin! :bravo:

Investigation...amicable discussion...scholarly exchange of ideas... you've just gotta LOVE this site and hobby! :thumb up:

Nice negotiation skills Ron! :thumb up:

Welcome to the site. I would agree that the first one is a Fireman's helmet, hard to say but possibly French. The next two are more difficult as they appear to be English...perhaps a "Miner's or Thresher's Guild"? :-k Good Luck!!

Wurttemburgers are nice, but I prefer Hamburgers myself!!! :lol: (just a little "trench-humor", y'all!!) :thumb up: Rob.

What a fantastic collection of piths! Really marvelous!! :bravo:

Cool basket. 'Nuff said... 8-)

Nice room, Ron! Very well done and I liked the space-saving back-to-back display cases. :thumb up: rob.

Bravo! I think that this is a fine haube and a tremendous "score"!! The two do display well together so "cheers" to you!!! :thumb up: rob.

Yes, the site is back on-line now. :)
