All,
My latest find is a 1915 EM's Kuirassier. When I found it it needed some work so quickly sent it off to Cameron Laughlin. I spent a while chasing original kokardes. Sadly the national kokarde required reprinting. The wappen, spike and base and the trim have all been repainted, as has the interior of the helmet. Some surface rust remains on the shell itself, but despite this I love it.
I have a couple more on the way soon - a JzP Off Officer's helmet and an EM's 2nd Kuirassier. Both are being restored by Cameron and I am can't wait to smuggle them into the house past the wife. Sadly these are my last for a while.
Regards
Steve
