Wow......just brutal, but thank goodness that they are!
Brunos' example also has the finish (rear visor) applied to the hair side of the hide rather than the flesh side which provides more "grip"for the finish. The attempts at aging the brass fittings using chemicals is also so European "FAKE".

Maybe they meant 'New helmets found in old attics'. :lol:
