VERY GOOD VINTAGE PRE-OWNED: This helmet has seen some action and the paint has heavily worn off. The rim was mostly black at one point but now looks silver. The leather badge and the brass holder are in great condition considering the age. The badge has a little bit of cracking. Both the badge and the brass could use some polish to freshen them up. (PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR DETAILED CONDITION)
