ROYAL FLYING CORPS
LEATHER FLYING HELMET & GOGGLES
(c,1915-16)
A LOVELY AND 'SUPER CRISP' ROYAL FLYING CORPS (LEATHER FLYING HELMET) By 'HEGARO' of London. Circa 1915-16 & Associated Period "Amber Tinted" Flying Goggles.
Helmets in this state of preservation have always been rare as hens' teeth. This is a stunner from my own collection. The HEGARO company of London made helmets for the RAF and for Civil Aviation for many years including many "Gosport Tube" types as late as 1940. The goggles are totally period and are also in 'crisp' original condition with amber tinted lenses.
Elastic is 100% perfect.
A CLASSIC DISPLAY PAIRING FOR YOUR COLLECTION.
