Württemberg M1915 Pickelhaube

[Stosstrupp]

Hello

My latest find is this Württemberg M1915 pickelhaube , it stamped GR.123 (Grenadier Regiment 123) and XIII A.K (13th Armee Korps) the inside of the helmet is made from Filz and manufactured stamped J.Pfand Stüttgart.
The rear visor and inside of the helmet is a named with Baumetz , the chinstrap has brass fittings but it looks like they were painted grey in the past.

Great helmet.
Wich I had one, now!
I had one. Right out the woodwork, but had no collection at that time.
I needed the money.
But kept a good souvenir of it, I casted it.

now this is something I never considered making a copy of a pickelhaube. You have a real talent that for modeling the individual components for making a realistic copy.

Somehow I missed this post, what a great helmet, excellent condition! In my experience, the M15 Wurttemburg is a rare beast. Congratulations!

Good evening,
Superb helmet, in good condition. Yes, apart from the "Prussians", M15s from small states, provinces, grand-duchies and kingdoms are rarer than M1895s.
