New to site, decided to start collecting Imperial Germany...

Hello all,

I recently ran into a helmet collection and bought several picklehauben. I decided to keep 2 of them and begin collecting imperial.

For years I have collected SS and have some rare and valuable items but the thrill is gone, like BB King would say. I am tired of knowing more about reproductions than originals. The regalement of the imperial versus the brutishness of the 3rd Reich has become a final determining factor.

I am a member of WAForum and know for a fact that the forums can save huge amounts of cash and increase my learning curve by thousands of points...

I just ordered the the spiked helmets book by Trawnik as per instructions from Tony Schnurr.

If I had two hauben to get opinions about would I upload here?

Thanks for your help in advance, Newbie Rolf
 
Welcome Mr. Hein,
This would be a great place to present your Pickelhauben, if you need assistance with the posting of photos, there are some suggestions here;

But as you are a WAF member, I suspect that you are familier with the process.
Again, welcome back from the dark side.
Best
