Much of our revenue is created through the sale of non antique gift items .

The big draw however and my personal passion is the growing display of genuine militaria.

Pickelhauben remain the most instantly identifiable cultural Icons of the first world war Prussian Infantry 

It is however worth pointing out that prior to unification of Germany all the separate states had their own variety of Pickelhaube .

The basic leather shell was largely the same, only the helmet plates and cockade identified which region the unit belonged to.

Mounted troops such “Jager Zu Ferde” had steel shelled helmets with  articulated “Lobster Tail” neck protection.

The constraints of ballistic shell production lead to the use of steel fitting on all Enlisted Mens Pickelhauben by 1916.

Equally as leather became scarce pickelhaube helmet shells were produced in felt and in tin by the famous toy manufactures Bing.
