I am not sure the exact name of this helmet or what it is missing. It appears to be missing the spike on the top. See photos for more details. If you have any questions ask. Thanks for looking and check out my other listings.UPDATED DESCRIPTION: A viewer sent this to
This helmet and your other brass model are U.S. Fraternal Helmets made for Parade and misc. formal services (Groups like the Knights of Pythias, Masons, various other groups of the time), they are designed after the many US Summer models made in the late 1800s to early 1900s, they were made of cloth covered cork. There were many early brass-made European helmets, some military, some fireman's, but these two are American
Shipping is up to 5 days so if you are in a hurry don't bid. Understand that this is a hobby of mine and it might take awhile to get items packaged and out the door. I have a 40 hr week job, other business and am a firefighter/emt, so I have other things that need to get done also. I only ship items out once a week, sometimes more often depending on other workloads.
If something is wrong with the item you purchase and you would like to return it let me know so we can come up with a solution. Some listings may have errors on them, but I try hard not to have any errors at all. I copy other similar listings for the item I am listing. Sometimes this results in a draft that is misrepresented or I miss changing something in the listing. Please ask questions if the photos and descriptions do not match up.
Also, I use the cheapest shipping method most the time. If it is a larger item, I will compare all the services and may use FedEx or UPS. If one of these wouldn't work for some reason let me know and I may be able to come up with a solution. I will also combine shipping if it is possible on multiple purchases as long as you do not pay for a item first. Wait until you have the items you want and then I can send an updated invoice Thanks again!!!
