USCapturephotos Posted November 12, 2013 Share #30 Posted November 12, 2013 That is my dream find. I love the shipping crate as much as the helmet. I have a few shipping home crates in my collection...when I have found them though the contents were long ago sold off. Please let me know if you ever ever decide to sell! Thanks for sharing your find with us. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyQuinn Posted November 17, 2013 Share #31 Posted November 17, 2013 I would've walked right past it and written it off as a repro, no doubt. You were blessed by the flea market gods, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USCapturephotos Posted November 19, 2013 Share #34 Posted November 19, 2013 Oh my gosh. That footage is amazing! Wonder how many of those helmets ended up in the states? Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
