The foam is not mineThe foam is a killer. My first helmet ever had such a halfhead inside for decades I guess... Grrrr....
I think that I have asked about this book before ?Fine book on the Pelzmützen [French]
-have to check: either this book or Larcade Volume II: on the directories on the way the dyed seal fur is to be attached. The hair direction: pointing left or right...euhhh...But it really is regulated.
-excellent chapter on the Pelzmützen Totenkopf and the cloth Mützen Totenkopf as well.
No not for sale anymore, looked everywhere for it..,I think that I have asked about this book before ?
Is it still for sale ?
I would like to buy it , but I have not seen it for sale ?

Steve
Will not be simple. Rare. Sometimes in France...Then there still is a chance that they do not ship everywhere....I think that I have asked about this book before ?

I was looking for one to buy and IHi Steve,
I'm confused you just posted a few days that you were looking to find an M15 Hussar to replace one you had sold many years back and a few days later you posted this thread saying you found one.
Did you find it in your overflow storage?
Find one for sale?
Or already found one bought it and have it in hand.
I don't know how to congratulate ya.
regards John Josef
I was looking for one to buy and I

Steve
I guess that I did not do a very good job trying to answer your questionOk I think I've got it, these pictures your posting are of the model you're looking for and not of one that you just bought.
I was getting confused when people were saying great find.
I'm sure with your contacts you will have one real soon.
Hi Steve, I think the color is closest to Krapprot which was the color of the kolpak used by the 5th.Not sure about what color the Kolpack is ?

In the case of TonyS.'s example at the Kaiser's Bunker
His has a regt stamped into the top of the Hussar body ( H R 16 )

Let's see if I get up the nerveHi Steve,
If they've been together for a long time they can be tricking, that steel ring can get really tight with those 4 fastener clips. I've seen guys damage them trying to separate them. You've been in this a longtime and I'm sure you will be extremely careful should you decide to have a look. I've seen several 15's with regimental stampings under the Kolpak. If they are there my guess would be the 5th.
Good luck regards John Josef
Yes: I would say Krapprot-Madder.Hi Steve, I think the color is closest to Krapprot which was the color of the kolpak used by the 5th.
