european helmet

[Jim McDougall]

Guys, I was remiss in not adding this, and simply citing the article for the reference for future research of others. I am quite frankly not very adept (actually quite Luddite) at technical matters, thus often hesitant at adding links etc.
In this case, the article was not online, but in a physical copy I had here, and my wife and I were trying to scan it to post. We made a number of tries with files too large , but finally got this so hope it reads OK.

I am very grateful for the detailed and thorough material you guys and so many here on these pages tirelessly add (Fernando especially your very helpful translations from your resources). I am trying to get better at this so I can add material quid pro quo.

Here is the article by Mr. Dobson, from the London Arms Fair, Spring 2005.

Thanks guys! I'm glad I found this article and that it so well supports what we learned here from Ulfberth and Alan about this practice! Its great learning new things and getting perspective on armor.
