Hi Folks
All the talk about JzPs and the great comparison thread by Skipper John have sparked my interest in these helmets. Has anyone taken a look at this JzP? It looks like it might be a C.E. Juncker based upon John's post. However, the chin strap may be a reproduction and not an original period one because the back of the leather chinstrap is dyed black on the back. Is this a valid observation? Thanks in advance for your feedback.
