latest find at ciney military fair

[kaiser]

this one crossed my path nearly at the end of my visit at ciney militaria fair
it is a bambus made feutre helmet and the best part is it has a regimentaal marking in it that states

j.r.157 (4schlesische infanterie regiment nr 157)

those regimental markings are not often found in feutre helmets

i am pretty pleased with my find

Well i was sure to go home with one or two helmets
but when i had this one in my hand there was a gentlemen or 2 waiting behind me ,when i was going to place it back on the table
well i didn't
when i was walking away with that helmet in hand they came after me asking if i wanted to sell it to one of those guys
i was of no intention of selling this one
i am all in on ersatz helmets so this one cant be missed in the collection
