Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:72138 | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
Type: USAF Pilot Helmet |
A wonderful piece of history.&nb...sp; This helmet would be early Vietnam era. Shows obvious wear as this was a used piece of equipment from Major Ripley's collection. A fair amount of the thin interior leather lining is missing, the face shield does have a crack with a small corner missing (see last photo), but operates as intended, there is one screw missing on the the shield bracket (not an issue as the other two are secure and the missing one should be easily replaceable) and there are several scratches on the helmet. Regardless, still a battle tested item from a named Pilot's estate. Some accessories have been removed or are not included like the side microphone and oxygen mask; however, we do have these and will sell separately. We have multiple helmets and oxygen mask and are not sure which goes with each helmet, Plus these accessories were not attached to either helmet when we purchased the from the estate, so we are listing separately. Please review all photos as this helmet and visor are being sold in "as is" condition based on the photos. If you have questions, please ask.
