Excellent!! Unfortunately all this does is make my meger collection even megerer.

is megerer a word??

See? I told you guys that you would be awe-struck. Magnificent helmet, Cody. And in that pristine condition it is a virtually one-of-a-kind example.

Cheers,

Hey guys,

Thanks for all the kind words. I feel very fortunate to have acquired this magnificent example of Waffen SS kit. After purchase negotiations began, Kelly pointed out the Baer association. That bit of frosting certainly made the acquisition sweeter.

Thanks again,
Cody

WOW, What an incredible helmet.
Its beautiful

Cody. A dream come true lid, by any measure. Awsome, awsome, awsome... of course.

Seeing pictures of helmets like that makes Woodrow come up a hard!!

He did it again! What a wonderful helmet! Super cool! Congratulations!

Just got off the phone with a collector-friend 'up here' in Oregon. As it turns out, this helmet was acquired by an associate of my friend's from a vet in Beaverton, OR on a bright, warm Sunday in 1984. Earlier, I had sent images of the helm to this friend, whereby, he immediately recognized the helmet from the tiny kachunka in the upper-left corner of the runic shield. "That's it!"

J. Goodman, who acquired the helmet from the vet, was told of if by another who just didn't have time to go see the thing. Too bad. Goodman kept it long enough to receive credit in the Baer book then sold it to the person from who I received it. Small world we helmet collectors inhabit.

Curiously, the helmet is back home in Oregon.

Unbelivable...what a beauty.

Hello Cody,....I am so envious, It's just superb, I didn't think they came as good as that.....I bet it didn't come from Manions!!!....I suppose the obvious next question must be, have any black M35 DDs in a similar condition survived? Many thanks.
