I send back the AG/RO and got my money back. I was so lucky to get the chance to buy this and it arrived friday. Now I?m a happy man. Karsten

The eagle looks very thick compared to the the ones I have seen. This is my Juncker AG/RO Karsten

I my study of the Deumer AG/RO, to get ready to buy one, I noticed that there are at least two different dies. Have any of you also observed this and which one is the earliest? Karsten

Thanks for the support. I can offer it a good comfortable home among friends. :cheers:

Hi Guys That?s all for your opinions. I have made a tuff call, and returned it to the seller there is also solder here. I will pay top price for a Deumer AG/RO, if any of you have a spare one. Regards Karsten

Very lovely cased Deumer Pilot juvatwad, with a fantastic patina. Congrats Karsten

These are the best shots I can preform today. Karsten

Hi Guys This arrived today and I really like it, and God know?s it?s been hard to find one. I?m not to happy with the solder thus. I have asked one of mu very knowledgeable friends and he thinks it looks like a sloppy job from the factory and it?s not a repair. that makes sense, because the finish is applied on top of the solder. Would really like you to post yours and give your thoughts here. Karsten

Thanks for your opinion. Do you by any chance know when they inplimented steel helmet in the Fire Brigade? or maybe some-one else know? If they had steel helmet in the fire-brigade long before the TR era, then this helmet is very doubtful Karsten

You are right, it is the same type. I think it?s impossible to say whether it?s TR or post war and I would not bet on any of the possibility, because there is no way of telling, except if someone has a picture. If it was to be a TR era, I could imagine it to be from the land districts or just a temporary helmet, till the new arrives. Don?t we all know this from out duty time in the armed forces. As I said it can be no more that pure speculations what it is. I was hoped for some photographic evidence I?m Interested to hear, why you think it?s Post-War decals Joe ? Karsten

Well, I took a look at my Pickelhaube and it?s the same. Regards Karsten

Hi John Thanks for the reply. First of all I was curious if it indeed was a Juncker or not, even thus I was quite sure, but the catch was new to me. Do you have any images of this set-up, It would be nice to see. If it?s a qualified airgunner the condition is quite sad, and I get more and more convinced it is, I?m not going to buy it, except if I can get it very cheap. As you can see I all ready have a MM one in good condition. My seek is for this unqualified Deumer or Juncker airgunner badge. Will I ever find it Karsten

I don?t have the badge, but here is a photo more. Still might be an unqualified? Karsten

Hi Guys Has anybody see on like this before. To me it look like a converted Pickelhaube. The questions is if it original or someone having fun. I have a good feeling about it, but.... Is it pure fantasy or is it original? Regards Karsten P.S. These are the only pictures I have and can get, sorry
