Before you move to the link to see the Pickelhaube, below are Mannschaften (Other Ranks) shoulder straps from the three units who wore this pattern of Pickelhaube.

A stunning haube you have there Tony!
I hope you don't mind posting a helmet here also, but do you think this officers haube is family of yours?... Always thought it is Fußartillerie Schießschule , but was never 100 % sure about that...

Not at all! Very nice Karel. With that Eigetumsstück Mannschaften extra-pattern Garde star, I do not think a commissioned officer would wear that star. Fähnrich perhaps?

It appears your chinscales are rounded not flat?
 
How about the Feldartillerie- Schießschule (Potsdam)?

Tony: Your Guard foot artillery helmet is very nice and a difficult variation to find. Congratulations on another great acquisition.

Since you posted such a nice Field Artillery School shoulder strap, here is an issue field artillery school helmet that is marked to the instructor detachment.

=D>Bob; What a wonderful helmet, is it from your collection?? You just don't see wonderful artilleries like Tony's and yours very often. Dick

Here is the Fußartillerie that stated the thread so it, and the two Feldartillerie that Karel and R1 posted all show on the same page. Nice selection huh?
