    Two Helmets From Singapore

    Thanks Brian! I know products differ between the US and Canada, so wanted to get your input. I have a visor from an M15 that shrunk down to the size of a pea, so I'm going to see what it does on that. I have a very crazed officer helmet that I'd like to get the coating to relax and maybe even...

    Mecklenburg M95 helmet

    I don't know what Meck. wappens go for either. The shell looks like it's cracked on the left side and is pretty dirty. You never know when parts will come up for sale (is the back spine present?). If I were looking at this and it was a reasonable price I'd probably buy it. Unless there are some...

    Kaptainleutenant Otto Eduard Weddigen

    I'll post a photo. Just doing the rigging as they'd have in port. Interesting boats. Like the WWI airplane, the emergent technology is both modern and traditional.

    Cuirassier Helmet

    Obviously the wappen is repainted, otherwise looks fine to me. Any liner? Ron

    Kaptainleutenant Otto Eduard Weddigen

    Nice! He was every bit as popular as von Richthofen, but pop culture didn't keep his legacy alive for various reasons. Perfect timing. I'm making a model of the SM U.9 right now. (1/72 scale Das Werk)

    Bavarian Pickelhaube

    Looks like the shrapnel on the Bavarian helmet was angled upward when it hit. Either a low burst or the helmet was on the ground. Ricochet? Also agree with Brian, rodents. However, I have a Baden M15 that is mint on the outside and all dried up and stiff inside.

    Another M15 Wurttemburg enlisted helmet

    Super! No wonder I can't find one.. you have them all! ;) Seriously though, very nice. Almost looks like somebody had all of his friends sign the helmet.

    Latest buy! A very nice Prussian officer helmet, with extremely tall spike.

    Nice! I have a Saxon infantry officer with a similar spike. Yup... compensating for shortcomings. My helmet would have a very tall spike indeed. ;)
