Default Victorian Era Lifeguards Officer's Helmet
I am at a decision point regarding my Victorian era Lifeguards officer's helmet. I am taking a straw poll from among the members of the British Badge Forum... to clean or not to clean the helmet. The fire gilding is 99% plus intact and the enamel is in brilliant and striking condition... the skull aged to a nice patina but like the brilliance of a polished skull... a very untampered with helmet.
