Edwardian Home Service Helmet, Royal Artillery

Followers

Friday at 09:28 PM5 days

"The cork helmet is covered in black wool with brass front plate and fittings. The brass ball top displays a few small indentations. The wool cover shows dust and age, but it is without damage. The front plate and fittings all show an uncleaned patina. The interior leather sweatband is intact, as is the fabric lining. The interior shell of the helmet is manufacturer marked by the firm of Hawkes & Company. The helmet is lacking the chain link chin strap. Overall very good used condition."

Advertised as Victorian for $525.

Any comments as to quality and price? Is it possible to find an Edwardian Chain Chin Strap to add?

Any thoughts about cleaning the brass?

Thanks

Larry
