Pops369 Posted May 8, 2013 Share #1 Posted May 8, 2013 Here is a link to an estate sale this Thursday in Monroe, MI. It is a grouping of a WWII Chaplain. I cannot be there as I live two states away. The helmet is a fixed bail with a metal cross on front. They said the family has his complete service records. They also said they are going to be asking $1,800 for the helmet. Someone called and offered them that for it already. Not sure if that price is good or not. http://www.caringtransitions.net/DesktopModules/PropertyAgent/Print.aspx?ModuleID=2529&TabID=20074&PropertyID=2144&Template=RealEstate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USdog Posted May 8, 2013 Share #2 Posted May 8, 2013 That looks like a nice Chaplains group! Only a few hours from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDogMilitaria Posted May 8, 2013 Share #3 Posted May 8, 2013 I was watching that one, only about an hour away. I think there will be people waiting over night for that one. Ive seen it done for much, much less around here. Looks like a sweet helmet set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pops369 Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share #4 Posted May 8, 2013 The helmet does not have a liner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathfinder505 Posted May 8, 2013 Share #5 Posted May 8, 2013 I think I will call and offer $4,000. Might as well drive the price really high! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pops369 Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share #6 Posted May 8, 2013 What is a helmet like that really worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugme Posted May 8, 2013 Share #7 Posted May 8, 2013 What is a helmet like that really worth? Without any direct provenance(name on helmet), no liner, only a follow-me bar and assuming it doesn't have a cross on the front... $1800.00 is a tad high. Of course we have only two rather poor photo's to base this on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazchapdwd Posted June 12, 2013 Share #8 Posted June 12, 2013 I would have given my left arm for that chaplain kit if it was complete. Well, maybe a finger off of my left hand . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
