Great to see that they first attachted the helmplate and the "Kreuzblatt" afterwards

Does anyone by chance have some DR. 24 items they'd be willing to share photos of? I'm having a hard time finding anything from them on the open market or anywhere for that matter.

Outstanding helmets! The Hessian dragoons are uniquely beautiful, IMO.

Stunning

The right Hessian Dragoon helmet still eludes me - but this is the EM headgear that would pair with some of these, in the deep "steel green" of the Hessian regiments.

Interesting marks inside. If anyone happens to have the right resource, I'd love to know about Dragoner Spahn of the II Esc DR24.

Very nice! I would love to find one of these myself or potentially an NCOs visor. I like making displays with sets/ related items.
