Hello everyone,

May I ask you for your opinion on these helmets please? I’m not very familiar with these ones:

Many thanks for your comments.

The first one is a Baden fireman (officer) helmet, with the typical motto: GOTT ZUR EHR DEM NAECHSTEN ZUR WEHR.
What sort of comments do you need about the other one?
 
Regarding the Baden Arty helmet....the fittings, chin scales, cockades, and especially, the non vented rear spine which is proper for Arty all match the FAR markings on the helmet. The one thing that does not compute/ make sense to me is that we have an officer kugel on a government issued helmet. If I were buying this helmet I would put a proper issued OR’s kugel on it. Then everything, would be perfect.
 
Many thanks for the comments.

I would like to put a Baden Pickelhaube to my collection and it’s the first time I see some on eBay which aren’t super expensive yet. As I don’t have any experience yet I wanted to make sure if they are authentic and „in good shape“.

Many thanks
