Guests are always welcome here as well. If you do come to Canada make time to get from my house to Doug‘s house. It is only 2724 miles / 4384 km.

Hi Tony, it would be my great pleasure to visit you when I have the opportunity to go to the east side of the country. Thank you very much for your kind invitation. 😄 I am in Canada, but I'm in the far west, Vancouver.
 
Hello all,

Is it known who bought the standard of Husaren regiment königin wilhelmina der Niederlande (hannoversches) nr. 15

Regards

Henk Koelewijn
 
Congratulations Doug on your latest purchase and of course on the helmet as well.

A man has to treat himself once in a while and like you said it's a once in a lifetime opportunity especially with that provenance. (y)(y)(y)

No need to be sad @Jvpi - the Küraß will be displayed with a 1LKR helmet that is pretty much dead mint :)

....and now everyone knows what I spent my kids inheritance on lol. Yes I am the one crazy enough to drop that kind of money on the Küraß but at least it went to a forum member - along with a few other nice pieces I will post when they come in (fingers crossed for expedited shipping to Canada).

That's fantastic to know it will go to a good home !
Especially with that killer helmet to be united with !.....
And let be honest....that Küras is one of the most rarest beast known to man.
I know just one in a European collection, but that's it !
I'm very happy for you Doug !👍

Thanks Steve. This picture is from last year as we were packing to move to our new house we built and now reside. Christmas decorations are not out here until December yet!

Incredible helmet and cuirass, the helmet looks like it was worn twice then put away! and amazing that you kept your face out of the reflection in the photos! Rob

I use it to shave once in a while lol. Thanks for the kind words, and you guys don't need to see this ugly mug, just the beautiful helmet.
