Sadly Paul your feelings were right, the helmet is bad, a complete modern fabrication. Tim.

Re-worked helmets for reenactors will cost you more than $200.00. Moneywise you are OK and can probably sell it for that with no problem. The sting is in buying something that has been misrepresented. Hey, we've all been taken at some point.

mike...it would make a wonderful German Beerbong...with a few branches added you could not even tell that there were beersteins added...and the steins would cover up the decals anyhows...smile...ein Prosit der Gemütlichkeit...Roland.

You could wear it as you drive to the MAX. Other drivers might give you a lot of leeway Big GrinBig Grin
