I like it! If it were mine I would have Brian restitch the rear visor, if I found a star that closely matched so be it but otherwise I would leave rest as is. Good find!
Thanks, didn’t want to take away from the subject helmet but I had one in my collection and had never run across another so I knew they had to be uncommon.
Helmet looked good to me but after posting in the uniform section about the boards a member has questioned the blue under the visors. Not textbook but felt it was original owner request at purchase. Would welcome any opinions on the helmet and of course the boards...
I assume the blue under the visors was original owner’s request at time of purchase. I’ve seen dark green on both before. But I am not as experienced as many here. Helmet looked good to me but do you feel it needs to be posted in dragoon section?
The boards are with a officer dragoon pickelhaube. To me the helmet looks good but had no idea about the boards. It was listed a DR 12.
