Absolutely,
a BIG "you know I only buy you practical gifts and you need another one of those Helmets like a whole in the head".

She keeps shooting me down but I will continue to send her hints every Birthday , Christmas as well as Anniversary, Easter, St Patricks day, Halloween, Veterans Day, Fourth of July, Labor day, Groundhog Day and even MLK day act etc until I finally break her

I totally agree, all it takes is a stack of money

a very nice collection !

 

[Ryanpyc]

But unfortunately, he has to sell... who knows with what regret

 

[stuka f]

Some times it is a releve to sell, and to become free. ;-)
We own nothing, we are only porters of the items we may keep for a while.

I have never regretted any helmet sale and yes it can be a relief. A relief from caring for these 100+ year old pieces of History…..dusting, watching humidity etc.

[Edited my stupid comment] I believe the photo below of an exceptional 1842 is one of his that I saved from a thread our forum. I’d like to congratulate him on having an exceptional eye for quality and his photography is outstanding.

 

[Sandmann]

You’re right Tony! Not only the quality of the photo is excellent, he also has a good eye for helmets. Would also like to know who he is

 

[Amybellars]

He may not be watching the forum.

His prices are pretty fixed on email, I made an offer for the baden and it was rejected right away.

I guess he has to factor in ebay fee and he has no urgency to sell.
