mick851 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Hi, Does anybody have any information about John Round & sons making helmets during ww1? I've got a ww1 helmet shell, the early raw edge type with the stamp mark JR&S A5 Thanks Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lysander Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 They don't appear on my list of manufacturers of Brodie helmets either here or worldwide. JSS was Joseph Sankey?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lysander Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 "JR& S" seems too much of a coincidence...who knows, some workman might have used his "initiative" to give the helmets the full silversmith manufacturers initials.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
