Thanks for this very interesting article ! I have a FR 73 helmet with writen inside the Name of à US soldier and "Koblenz". I think that in these 85000 helmets, there were too a stock of FAR 44 because of the number of helmets and Uberzug you can find today in USA.

Hello I would too not hésitate a second to gather the two items. It is very scarce to find so smatching Uberzug Pickelhaube. I try to collect such sets and I can confirm it is difficult to find such a smatching set. And generally prices are very very high... I will show this evening another...

For me cold air was blocked by the Uberzug.

Hello Still in research for Uberzug ! Don't hesitate to make me propositions !

For me who is keen of Uberzug, this auction was a kind of dream ! .. except for the price. With Euro we have the same trouble of rate between Pound and euro (1,15). The helmets with Uberzug (in some case clearly the two items were not born together) did amazing prices, unaffordable for me. I am...

It is a very common scam, peole take pictures from old auctions and create a new auction without owning the item..

I do not think. Hanseatic troops were in the same case.

But in France we have bad guys. This very nice helmet was sold on ebay.com L'annonce de vente sur Ebay US : And the buyer broke up the helmet to sell each part on ebay.fr...

Tell me when it's running, I will send you some markings !

Interesting. I wonder which size it has. 34 ?

Nices pictures but sometimes all the parts of an item are not shown.

Oh yes, I do agree stuka f... :thumb up:

It is always difficult to find some informations with small units in Pionnier or Fussartillerie. You could check in this Buch : Paul Heinrici: Das Ehrenbuch der Deutschen Pioniere, Verlag Tradition Wilhelm Kolk, Berlin um 1930 Unfortunately I do not have it.

People who didn't study enough the good pickelhaube books and who don't go on the forums

Thanks. The blue is different. And I suppose that the central hole for fixing the cocade must be different.

And has this firemen cocade exactly the same shape as the S-L cocade I show ?

Yes it is a real shame to have made disappear such a scarce helmet. I tried to have the picture of the helmet before destruction but the seller didn't have them anymore. We will have no exact answer of why of how this S-L cocade was used.. With these 2 Lippe cocade, I need now find another...

Otherwises I can put this cocade, which fits more with a 1914 helmet, always form Lippe, but this time from Lippe Detmold !

Hi Lars I know for the cocade way of wearing. But the two cocades I put on my helmet come both from the same helmet, found in the area of Lille (France). The helmet, on which they were, was in very bad condition and the first guy who bought it decided to destroy the helmet to sell the metal...

A very amazing Christmas gift ! I dream to find one as nice as this one
