I had the great pleasure of dealing with that same auction house when selling a rather exeptional whale bone scrimshaw, back in 2017. So I keep getting theyr news letters, and this appeard. Not my cup of tea, so I will not bid on it.

Having the main collection stowed away, but still collecting the stuff, feels like starting over again.... However those latest ones, will go soon, along with the others.

Out of the woodwork came this M 15. With some issues....but "untouched" in a certain way... To me it was never used. Only stamped with a date and the size in the dome. (1917 and 58 1/2). No removable spike, silver paint on the wappen, 91 slots of the chinstrap, the back reinforcement and the...

Here in France they have a bank holiday, for the WWII victory. Not sure where this picture was taken...France or Belgium. If it is France it must be up north. I wunder where the helmet ended....

Very happy with my last antique shop find, as I will explain in short. I was allways intrested in crests; familly crests, town and state crests ... When I got in to the world of the familly crests it soon became a additional collecting field. Familly crets can be found in all kind of subjects...

been after that wappen(on a helmet!) for a long time. Would have prefere having it on a over sea contingent, but James gendarme helmet made me go for this one. I had the choice between a ordinary (infantry) or this one for mounted troops. The spike base is quiet similar (tot James helmet) but...
