Photo Album of Pickelhaubes (Helmets) of the German Imperial Army "Head Dress of Imperial Germany: 1880-1916" By Paul Sanders 2001 Schiffer Publishing ◆◆Details◆◆ This book introduces Pickelhaubes (helmets) from the German Empire, including Prussia, Bavaria, and the Duchy of Saxony, from 1880 to 1916, with large, full-color photographs. The Pickelhaube was designed in 1842 by Friedrich Wilhelm IV of the Kingdom of Prussia. Its unique shape gradually spread to other German states, and after the Kingdom of Bavaria adopted it in 1887, it became common throughout the German army. The content mainly features officer's helmets, but also includes many rare items such as those for dragoons. Helmets for officers, non-commissioned officers, and enlisted men are shown for each branch of service. This is a large, well-made, luxurious book with high documentary value. ● Although it is a foreign book, the content is mainly photographs, so those who are not good at English can still enjoy it. This book is very difficult to obtain in Japan. ◆◆Specifications◆◆ English book Arms and Armor, Helmets, Military Photo Album, Collection of Works Hardcover 23.4 x 2.6 x 31.4 cm 200 pages ◆◆Condition◆◆ This is a very old book from 17 years ago.
