Hi All
A short introduction of myself to this wonderful forum which I have been browsing for many months now and from which I have already learnt so much.
Like most of you, collecting German headgear of the Imperial era is my passion but I also collect French hats and helmets of the same period. I have found that collecting artifacts of only one nation can be a bit repetitive so, I like to variety. Beside, I have always loved the colourful uniforms of the glorious French army of the turn of the XXth century.
I tend to favour items in good / very good condition and, like most of you, untouched. I do not like cleaning my items which means that they do not always shine but their beauty is well-kept “inside”!
I will post some of my things hopefully soon. In the meantime, please keep posting your beautiful pieces
Best
