That group is just mesmerising ! Hessen heritage in just one photo.

Congratulations Tony, you bought this for all the best possible reasons. Steve

Zeb, your collection is truly awe inspiring. That Baden helm has just given me a new "unicorn" to hunt down! Congratulations and thanks for posting so many beautiful helmets. Steve

Thanks for that Brian, now I see how it works. You say it is unique so I'm guessing you have not seen any similar examples from other States.

Wonderful transformation Brian, been AFK for quite a while and hadn't completely followed this process. Can you please clarify a point about the rear spine? First, I hadn't realised that 'false' exterior dome heads were sometimes used with concealed split brads to give the outward appearance of...

"what kind of brute forces a wappen into the shell?! takes a lot of strength!" --A Gorilla with an eye for profit?? Steve, good solid job on the skull. Brass normally takes well to annealing (been there, done that) BUT 100 year old brass? Personally I would give it a go, with my heart in my...

You are right Coert, the evidence is that they deceitfully call their WAR a "Special Operation" - demonstrating that they can't even be honest with their own people, let alone the rest of the World. Sorry if my opinions are overtly political Brian, I know this Forum is not really the place for...

Volodymyr Zelensky is a President worthy of the name, unlike some we could all mention. Finally, the World sees a politician who not only does his job but also tells it like it REALLY is.

"They make a desert and call it peace". Tacitus, 56ad.

Really nice Set Coert, I'd love to have my morning coffee in it!

Thank you Brian, for saying what is in all our minds, and saying it damn well.
