manayunkman Posted April 17, 2019 Share #30 Posted April 17, 2019 It could show up on eBay. Who knows who got it as there are at least 5 knowledgeable pickers that I know of who comb that market and more less knowledgeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doodlebewi Posted April 17, 2019 Share #33 Posted April 17, 2019 It was from an estate sale. I have a feeling one of our members will get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stealthytyler Posted April 17, 2019 Share #40 Posted April 17, 2019 There are close to 500 hits on newspapers for Grant from 1944 to 1945 during his time in Europe. Here are just a few that I pulled. A closer look may render an image of him wearing this helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray175INF Posted April 18, 2019 Share #41 Posted April 18, 2019 That helmet has some beautiful patina with history to boot. Congrats on the baby, Owen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kammo-man Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share #43 Posted April 18, 2019 Thanks Guys ........ Sleep ? what is that ? Its something on google my wife tells me. All joking aside the helmet belongs in a collection that enjoys it and looks after it properly. I suspect the whole grouping will be reunited eventually. This helmet has for sure been in the thick of it for sure indeed. Thanks to all who has taken the time to post archive information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundance Posted April 18, 2019 Share #44 Posted April 18, 2019 Nice helmet but there is nothing nicer than a baby. She'll be your favorite thing for a long, long time. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
