Well, things must be REALLY expensive in New Jersey! (Can we blame the government again!?? #-o )

I looked it up and there was a visorless Pickelhaube with the trim attached. The idea was to use the trim as a supplementary chinstrap (fitting it under the brow) during artillery attacks so the concussion didn't blow the helmet off. This is probably THAT prototype!!! How rare can you get?

This is not as good as the $250,000 WW1 pilot mummy with the couple of fake rings and a nice pair or Taiwanese Ray-Bans but quite close...

Hurry Ron, push on the $2,000 Buy it Now option before it's too late!!!!

Isn't Jersey where the governor takes the state helicopter to a little league game for his kid, then walks to 100 or fewer yards to the game? Yeah, if you live in Jersey, you'd better buy that thing. (no, Wisconsin's governor is no better... [-( , so I can't really talk :-$ :-# 8-[ :wink: ).

What's frightening though, is that someday those WILL be the prices for this stuff! I remember when two of us got on an antique store owner for asking $500 for a Prussian M15.
