I suggest that you use the search option in the 'headgear section' of this forum. If you type the word 'display', you'll find several threads covering this matter.

Hi Evan,
I've used these polystyrene heads in the past (although some people say that they give off dangerous fumes) which I painted myself. They're quite cheap and have good, strong features.

Glass

I have my helmets and my growing collection of visor caps in a glass display cabinet. I like glass all around because it gives a great view of your items as well as keeping them dust free. Have a look at the way I have mine set up just for some ideas

I just put my helmets on shelves but they are exposed to dust year round and a load of humidity, which I've just come to accept. As long as the helmets last as long me I guess...after that they can be chucked in the river for all I care.
