Bavarian Raupenhelm's

[J.LeBrasseur]

Picked up a couple new Bavarian Raupenhelms over the last couple weeks, so thought I would share them and their few friends I already Had.

First new purchase is a M1868 Mannschaften Field Artillary Raupenhelm. Nicely marked into the leather of the inside 2 FDAR. as well as I think a paper museum tag.

Second new one is a M1868 Mannschaften Landwehr for Infantry.

Here is a group shot of all my Raupenhelms:

Back row

1) M1845/48 Artillary helmet

4) M1868 Officer Infantry

Thanks

James;
Truely Outstanding.
I have had a few over the years and they bring out an old soft spot.
