Gosh, I don’t think I’ve posted on here in a few years. I took time away from imperial German back in 2019 in order to focus on South Vietnamese militaria, however I’ve decided to come back as the Pickelhaube was the first interest I ever had in regards to militaria.

I’ve done so by picking up a Prussian pioneer officer at SOS 2023 from Tony Cowan. I’ll take better photos this weekend, it’s a nice and honest piece.

For those who have a side collection of steel helmets, pictured in the first photo are Stahlhelm collectors Jerry Rehr and Jan Meland. The latter being the author of German Helmets 1916-45. He’s holding an Ersatz Prussian that I picked out for him. I’m holding a depot repaired m15 that Jerry had picked up.

It was nice meeting Amy Bellars, Brian Loree, and Maxwell (JVPI) this year.

Welcome back to the forum and it's nice to have young collectors like you joining the hobby.

Nice meeting up with you at the show and yes I saw you bought the pioneer officer from Tony Cowan.

Do show more pics of your haul.
