Lumpy, looks like a later model than 1969, I'm sure pilots here who know a lot more than I do will know what it is.
The bidder is a collector, which is fine, but I have no intention of allowing a collector to invest in that unique 119th flight helmet.
IF nobody else recognizes or has a stake in the helmet, I will buy it at whatever price it takes and then hold it for the rightful owner. ANYBODY who can give us a lead as to "rightful owner" please let us know. If it does get too rich for my blood, I will report same here.
I won't be bidding for a couple of days.
GREAT CATCH Lumper.
