Solved! Question on Book by American author.

For me that little book started it all.
A collector friend loaned me his copy circa 1970
I saw the photos of the collections of the "old time " collectors
Walter E. Hartmann and Cliff Foster I sat down and made up
a want list .I said to myself ; " This is for me "
Cliff Foster was in the U S Army stationed in Germany
He bought helmets and steins and shipped them back to
my mentor Robert ( Bob ) M. Ledbetter in Memphis , Tenn.
I would go to Ledbetter's house and buy what I could
Steve
Born in Germany 1961
I was stationed in Germany 1981-1991. By then all the best was gone. No. Joke. No collecting Hauben back then...
 
Ordered from Canada. And... Let us hope the Belgian Customs are merciful!

And NO the Belgian Customs we're not....they charged me more than I payed for the book....😬

-a few hours earlier today: the customs handled some books I ordered from the US...guess what...passed...free...Nada...nothing...
To be honest...I feared for the worst on this order....
