                  That is quite an amazing collection you have.

                  I started my recent "Canadian " WW1 collecting with an American helmet ...so you are doing much better than I am.

                  I was in Ypres and area this spring...and it all made quite an impact on me...

                  BTW ...where do you get the mannequins from?

                      Thanks! A collection always start with some good research, but everyone makes mistakes. Even I do after all those years...

                      the mannequins itself (body) are old 1930's or older, the mannequins are made in france. And then I buy the heads on antique markets or where ever I can find them (they're made from wax). They easely go up to 350 - 500 Euro

                        Great display Glenn and a very well focused collection of Canadian militaria.

                        Congrats on your efforts.
