Bruno and all members ;
Bruno I address you first as I know that you know the Laine book well.
For all the years that I have owned it I had a reason to pay attention
to Wurttemberg P B 13 .Today I did .
Whoever did the art layout work for Laine shows the officers helmet
for Wurttemberg P B 13 with a fluted spike ?
Is this an artist mistake ?
I have never seen a Wurttemberg helmet with a fluted spike
( except for Generals )
Thanks
Steve
 
Laine did all the artwork himself, Steve.
You are correct about PB13; wrong spike on the drawing. I had not noticed.
Didier Laine acknowledged there were a few mistakes in his book. There was actually a leaflet inserted in new copies, which listed these errors. I don't have it anymore but perhaps someone else does...
Still negligible compared to the huge amount of accurate information contained in this book!

Mine also came with that leaflet when new. Unfortunately, lost to time and my incessant use of the book.
