Saxon Officer helmet of the highest quality. This is a
top of the line Awes-Marke helmet as can be seen from
the various niceties in the helmet construction. The
liner has the Awes-Marke logo etched in the leather
sweat band and the band has a high quality fabric
tightening band. The top of the liner has the
Awes-Mark gold label that says premium quality.
The leather is soft and light.
Cockades are the one piece non-serrated type.
The wappen on this helmet is gilt on gilt. Most of us are used
to Silver on gilt but I have now seen 7 helmets with this configuration
including the one in the Saunders book. This helmet picture
comes from the 1902 Ruhl. Why no cross??? Still looking.
Why
no cross???
The helmet is gilded and is topped with a black yak hair parade
plume.
