@Doug B , you truly have a magnificent collection, a collection guy's like me can only dream of, and so well displayed, it would make a museum seem like they're just amateurs, compared to your way of displaying. Just like other members, this isn't the last time I will be looking at your...

I'm sure you can do a great job on this one Brian! Having seen many of your restoration projects. But a question from me, is, or was Steve's collection for sale, after he passed away? Regards, Coert.

Why are you here? This has nothing to do with pickelhauben, or ww1 history.

It is indeed an officer helmet.
