And finally, an overall view.

Nice orginial shell in my opinion. It still has its correct early aluminum liner band. Not too sure about the color but I think it is just the photo. Too bad it's missing the leather,
I think it looks pretty good but won't hold the value that a complete one will.

It seems OK to me, worth to be rebuilt... if the price is fair, of course.

Here is an example of the color.

Wow, we posted at the same time ; but you won on the line, Ty !
Ageing and eventual treatments (plus the photo) can sometimes give a strange color to the paint, but I think this one is OK.

[Ty Smith]

I think this one might have been waxed or clear-coated. look close at the vents. Still a good helmet for the right price.

[Ty Smith]

Yes yes yes, Chris, But you usually win
How about those SS helmets, want to mail any of them West ?

Aber sicher ! Warum nicht, Kamerad ?
One is still waiting for adoption, among other nice lids on the e-stand by now...
