Dear all,
A year ago I obtained a plain M95 Bavarian haube from Stewarts military antiques without a chinstrap and cockades. Amazingly, the customs fee for this helemet turned out to be 20% of its value. Nevertheless, it took me little over a year to find authenthic parts on ebay to complete it. The latter proved to be a lot of fun and I learned much by discussing the various ebay listings here. The last part, a Bavarian state cockade, arrived yesterday and today I took some pics in order to share those here.
