My Helmet display....wall o' helmets
Figured I would start the ball rolling in the display section with my very own Wall O' Helmets!!...this pic is a few months old and I will have to update soon, pretty simple wood shelves with helmets alternately placed on my homemade helmet stands and backdrops for effect!....lets see your displays too!!....mike

Alright, I'll throw mine in too. These are several months old, and I have mor ehelmets and displayed differently, but my camera is dead and I can't for the life of me currently find the charger. When I find it I will put updated photos up.
I use the Ikea DETOLF cabinets, the store is right next to you Mike, but for me it's a bit of a trek!
I also use the BILLY cabinet, as seen in this photo with my junkier helmets on it.
The Detolf

Second one.
EDIT: Sigh, it keeps bugging when I try and post it.

Looks like you can outfit your own squad of Marines there Mike!
I like how you've got the paratroopers pulling guard duty on the Krauts!

When do you say enough?
Mike you have way too many helmets. Don't forget the PO saying, "If it fits, it ships!" I happen to know these will fit in a USPS Priority box. I'll PM you with my address and you can send any of those US helmets. Any at all, I'm not picky!

Very nice guys. I must say I also have one bringback German helmet sitting quietly and behaving among his M1 captors.

Re: My Helmet display....wall o' helmets
thanks gentlemen!

Helmet display
My son took one look at these displays and told me my man card should be revoked because of our pitiful grouping. I asked him if we should post our display and he told me that he would rather wear a skirt than share our sorry collection. Its tough hangin with you guys, my kid is losing all respect for me.
