Condition is wonderful for an early helmet.

Unbelievable, where do you even find such helmets all the time?

How long is the spike exactly?

My German friend got it at an auction for me. The spike is 10cm , it's the helmet that is very tall that makes the spike a tall one.

Thanks for all the kind words. I got the lead from Strve McFarland . Without his lead, I would not have alerted my German friend to help me to get it from the auction. He drove 3 hours to the auction.

So glad to have all these boy friends .
