Yup, no need to bid on that one! I hate to disagree with a carefully written description, but "In my opinion, it's not original, but a fake." I wonder if the seller is telling the truth? We've had members post photos of fakes at antique stores and this might look good to somebody who knows nothing about helmets and wanted a quick profit.

The seller says he's sure the it is all original. I invited him to post a photo of it here. But, well, you know.

An absolute total fake...galvano wappen. Ever seen a helme with side reinforcement pieces that looked like that? Double holes in the front. Garbage!
