I think they did good on the helmets, as original WWI configuration Austro-Hungarian helmets are hard to find. I am not too sure about those covers though. That is a very specialized area and they are well beyond rare. I am pretty sure that cover with the second helmet did not have it when sent/delivered to <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:City><ST1Sacramento</st1:City>. You can still see the old postage on the exterior top of the helmet and the cover would have certainly covered up the post and any mailing label
