    What do you think about the general originality of the helmet and especially the decals,color on the shell,rivetts,etc...
    Thanks!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Like Bill says, looks good to me, maybe one or two rivets loose or the liner may of been removed at one point, the decals look good, but havent got my book close by, as far as I know there were two Eagles, but cant remember which one is correct with the tricolored shield.

    My only concern is the crooked tricolored shield but I guess that some may have been issued like that.
