J.LeBrasseur Administrator Staff member Mar 13, 2019 #1 Posted this one years ago, but with new category, thought I would share again. Purchased this one from Old Canadian Military collector Jim Godefroy or Triplane as most of us new him, he is sadly, gone now. Bavarian M1845/48 Artillery Helmet. One of my favorites. James

Click to expand... I knew Jim Godefroy and his family very well. We were friends, and I stayed every time I had to spend a night in Montreal. Melanoma took him in July 2010. Rest in Peace Jim. I remember this Raupenhelm James, saw it many times at Jim's. Wonderful helmet. :thumbleft:
