Gentlemen,
I mostly collect german imperial helmets and uniforms. What I got now is a WWI helmet, worn by a member of the 1. US-Infantry-Division. I think, these helmets are rare birds and you like to see it.-
Regards Kolibri

Kolibri, I'd imagine that US helmet collectors would consider this a special treat, how many of these could there be left?  nice! Does anyone else have one that they could post? Great looking helmet. Thanks and best regards! Bill

Very nice helmet. I have a American WWI helmet but it has no markings. My great grand father was a WWI Vet. I wished I could have talk to him more.

Very nice helmet. The 1st Division was actually one of the units that painted their helmets up somewhat frequently, I have seen maybe 2 dozen over the years.
Unlike the 32nd "Red Arrow" which was from this neck of the woods, I have only encountered 3 of them.
