I just had to get this :lol:
$15.00 for this true near mint visor :lol:
I am going to put on it a relic ( and I mean close to ground dug guys)condition police eagle,

Then have a story, oh yeah, **this visor was found in a collapsed bunker after the Battle of Berlin and brought back by a vet.**

Money well spent.....

I don't know about restoring it :roll: , but it's well worth $15.00 for the visor alone, and you can possibly "save" the strap, side buttons, whatever. Remember, if that was a "Confederate "Fire Police" Hat, even in that condition, it would be a highly prized example!!!! 8O . I've seen worse for sale and for alot higher price!

The "Fuhrer Bunker" story might be too much too believe..... :lol: but I might "buy" that it came from one of those newly discovered "Rooms" in the Berlin Flak Towers :roll:
As always....

I had forgot about the *flak tower* room BS.
THanks, now the price will be doubled.
