I finally found something out of the woodwork that I’ve wanted for many, many years. A real, not messed with Prussian General’s Pickelhaube.

The photos are from the seller at an estate sale. The last photo shows the helmet sitting in a paper sack reserved for me, waiting to be mailed out on Saturday the 13th. I can post more photos when it arrives in the mail in a few days.

It has the correct fluted spike for a Prussian General, the square cut front visor, and the curved/rounded chinscales, all indicative of a general’s helmet.

The massive Guard Eagle’s wings sweep halfway back on each side of the helmet. Needless to say, I can’t wait for it to arrive!

Best Regards,

Alan
