Well,have you seen this helmet at Weitzes page last friday? I was surprised-this is one of the real rare birds for a collector of captured and reissued helmets!

That is a great helmet. These can be a collecting field of their own. My favorite is the captured Soviet helmets.

It is! especially when you have it in your hands! .I thought I had stopped collecting LS helmets......wrong.The russian ones are of course really beautys-I've got just two of them,the Ssh36 and 39.Both of them in good conditions with the full LS wings.

Congrats Micha! How many LS helmets do you have now? Do you have any cloth insignia as well?

Hard to tell...think it must be around 40 left(I've kicked out all the common ones...just two gladiators left!) And no,nothing else Luftschuz related.My iron crosses are in the pool position!

Sorry, but this isn't a Dutch army helmet as used by the infantry in 1940!

- sorry, just wait! This might be a model 1916 helmet!
