Wow Tony, wonderful display full of mirabilias.

No, I can't believe it. What a pity to ruin such a beautiful helmet like this.

Wonderful collection. I love also the italian pioneer pith helmet and the bersaglieri "vaira" with the fabric cover.

Austria purchased from Germany a first supply of M17s that arrived in the feldgrau color and with the typical k91 attachment. The Austrians, to make them uniform and adapt them to their hemp chinstrap, produced this metal adapter with the hemp chinstrap. Very interesting. It could have been...

Yes, it is obviously a misunderstanding. I never intended to make you angry, I apologize if it happened inadvertently but I do not think it is necessary to continue discussing this topic.

I have always said that three is the perfect number.

Sorry but I disagree with you. You are wrong about the wire attachment of the wappen. I do not know of any pickelhaube model that originally came out with the wappen held by the wire wrapped around it. There are adlers fixed with pen-headed through screws. There are attachments of the most...

I'm glad you like the ersatz collection. Zeb

It is obvious that the original attachments have broken and a crude repair has been made with a metal wire. These repairs always raise suspicions in me and I stay away from these contraptions. Zeb

Another beautiful example of your remarkable collection. I really like volunteer regiments. I have two in my collection: the 38th Rifle Volunteer's Artist and the Eton Volunteers Rifle Corp which I have already shown in two different threads in this forum. Thanks for sharing. I am always amazed...
