Hi Guy's. I just got a nice Private purchase helmet that is very beautiful but it has a feature which troubles me. Up where the green leatherette meets the calfskin sweatband it has a kind of black tar like substance running halfway around the join 'tween front visor edge and the shell. Also at the sides where the dome head pins secure the visor this stuff has run down slightly over the green leatherette. Anyone seen this on a straight legit helmet? Could it be a glue job? Did the makers sometimes use glue to fasten later liners or what. The front visors stitching seems secure enough so I wonder why anyone would use glue on it. But it has me worried as it's a high ticket 'haube.
