Hi,

I enjoyed viewing this interesting segment showing a nice older collection in the UK.

interesting, he made a couple mistakes, but overall did a pretty good job.

Nice grouping, would like to see her whole collection.

Very cool link, we do not see much Imperial on the Roadshow.

I'd be quite happy to have inherited that collection!

I would've been quite happy to inherit it too

Although the camo. stahlhelm looks fishy to me and, as James noted, the M95 Prussian Res. pickelhaube isn't an officer's...

interesting. I didn't know there were any original Pickelhuabe in England. :wink: I agree about the steel helmet.

The Saxon “spikee hat” has a fake spikee, and I bet the chinscales are also replaced,and the steel helmet has a Sunday afternoon paint job.
Never the less ,nice to watch …most people have no idea of the value of this stuff heh.

It's a tough road for our British friends. But the program was very nice.

Yup. I was kidding. Plenty of fakes in the US too.
