Simply go to H..... 🤪

Sorry, but totally bogus!! 😔 Philippe

Beautiful markings! 👍 This white paint in the shell is very special to the units of the IX AK (JR84,85,FR86, JR162, 163, and so on....) or even to those Schleswig-Holstein tradition units in other army corps (in this case, very first garrison of Sonderburg, 1866, today Denmark). Philippe

I fully agree, if I would buy an OJR91 helmet, that would not be this one 😔 Philippe

And because we are in the hanseatic cities, this one from the II/RJR76: Philippe

Yes, JR76 without any doubt. Grabenmaxx, how are you decyphering the stamp under the "I.R.75"? Ist it "I.B.75" for the first bataillon? I own the same helmet with same markings and same date 1900,and was wondering if the stamp under the IR 75 on my helmet was a second apposition of the same...

Why not? 😌 There were so many Ersatz pattern... However, considering this price, I would be more confident to see a period pict with this variation Philippe

He just found someone who made him a pleasant offer out of ebay, to economize the fees... I would never have bidden on this item. As already said above, the shell is probably a saxon one (Luftschiffer, Telegraphentruppen and Fliegertruppen) or even from the Garde-Schützen / Garde-Jäger. It could...

Hello Laurent! A awesome helmet 👍 Its comrad from the I/GR89, third company 🫠 Same place for the stamps on the rear visor! Named to Wilhelm Kleinfeldt, taken prisoner at Neuilly Saint Front (Ourcq) on the 10.9.14 (Marne retreat) by british troops of the 2 B. Royal Sussex. Philippe...

So do I 🫠 As Tony S. said, only a very short period. In this case, the wearer was a young bavarian Leutnant (born May 1896) who was mobilized in the Ersatz Bataillon of the KBJR19 on the 21.7.15 as a "Fahnenjunker-Anwärter"(probationary officer cadet). He was promoted Leutnant in the bavarian...

Thank you for sharing, Cloclo ;) As you know, I also am a great fan of those relatively scarce M15 officer helmets 👍 Philippe

Steve, does this rare EM helmet show some regimental stamps? Philippe

A small extension to your display. ;) Philippe

Another period pict with clearly broken front visor. Philippe

We have to be very carrefully with captions on old postcards... First, the fight at Vic sur Aisne happened during the retreat of the Marne on a single day, on the 12.9.14. Whether the DR25 noch the DR26 were in this sector at this time. Secondly, those 3 Württemberg helmets could also be...

Really a killer set!!! Do you see a name of wearer in the shell of the Tschako? Philippe

Here is a period pict. Normally, you find there a small metal ventilation dot with 7 small holes. Philippe

Major Kuno von Quitzow (born 17.03.1868) was Kommandeur of the JB3 between 2.8.14 and 28.1.15, between 28.2.15 and 31.7.15, between 7.11 15 and 2.12.15, between 1.2.16 and 26.2.16 and finally between 19.3.16 and 30.12.16. https://portal.dnb.de/bookviewer/view/1032164417#page/12/mode/1up He is...
