historically important helmet of Gilbert von Saint Hilaire resurfaced

Cerjak · 9th February 2016, 09:42 AM

Again an invaluable assistance From Jasper,Yesterday night he has called me to inform me about the unbelievable discovery he has made. I wrote this thread to find some old catalogues or books about this armour. But never I would hope for nothing more than that. What about when Jasper confesses that the armour its not his real field of knowledge !
May be thousands of collectors have seen this helmet but nobody noticed this before and without JASPER the link with the suit of armour of Gilbert de Saint Hilaire in the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum in Vienna would be lost.

Thank you so much Jasper !

Ps Now there is one more thing you could do for me would be to find a paint from Gilbert de Saint Hilaire.
Ok it ‘s a dream but ...
