Have some pictures of the rest of my collection.
A very old MSA helmet that is from my dept. way back when. I honestly have NO idea is this was a structural helmet or just display. It looks like some of the old helmets I've seen in old dept. pictures, but again, it very well could just be a display piece. Was in my father's office and he gave me all of his fire dept. things.

An old Bullard helmet from Bunker Hill. I bought this at a fleamarket in Strawtown. Don't believe it's from Bunker Hill, IN, due to the fact that their dept. is Pipe Creek.

My dad's old Cairns. He did have two of these, one yellow and one red, but I honestly have no idea what happened to the red cap. Unlike a lot of guys, he actually kept his helmet reasonably clean and wiped off all the black after it started to build up. One year he went as a clown for halloween and got red make-up on the headband liner. If you wear the helmet and start sweating, the makeup will dye your sweat red and make it look like you're bleeding. He responded to a could runs and had it happen and some officers tried to send him to the Techs. I also had some fun and scared the crap out of my mom.
