Adler 1 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Can you imagine going with low expectations (and not so much euros in your wallet) to the biggest militaria fair in Belgium and then you find a super rare birdie ? Well, that's what happened to me the last time in Ciney ... One moment it gets very hot and the other moment it gets freezing cold ... After some "Ciney Brune" beers and some serious negociating, I was able to bring this beauty home... I can present you an M95 officer's pickelhaube of the Anhaltisches Infanterie-Regt. Nr.93. My 20 year quest has finally ended, now the search for a nice IR92 can begin ... Maybe much can be told, but the pictures will do the work I hope... Adler
Hoss Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 What can one say? its beautiful congratulations Karel. Eric
Chip Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 Super helmet. I can't imagine a guy having that helmet would be much inclined to negotiate. Where are you going to get another one? Chip
Adler 1 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Posted June 27, 2013 Thanks for your nice comments! Chip, I gues it was a once in a lifetime deal... that's why it took 20 years to find one like this... Adler 1
