Description
Featured in this lot is a very good condition Imperial Prussian line Infantry Pickelhaube spiked helmet pre-1920s. This helmet features a lovely gold-colored alloy front plate with the Prussian state eagle clutching a scepter and crown, over the King's motto, "MIT GOTT FÜR KOENIG UND VATERLAND" (With God for King and Country, i.e. Prussia). The crown of this leather helmet displays a brass vented enlisted spike mount on an brass base plate. The spike is in excellent condition and is fixed and does not rotate. To improve ventilation, the rear spine on helmets worn by Foot Troops was equipped with a vent near the base of the spike which was fitted with a small sliding cover. This sliding cover allowed the user to increase or decrease the flow of ventilation in the helmet according to the weather conditions. There is no chin strap included. The lacquer finished leather is in very good condition having no serious issues. Has original interior liner. Overall it is a very nice condition Imperial Prussian pickelhaube. The measurements of this helmet are 9" L x 6" W x 8 1/2" H with an approximate circumference of 20".
