Dear AFOL's,
I have several vintage space helmets (they have straight sides, not curved
like modern helmets). Does anyone know when these were used? (~1977-~1983?)
Also some seem to have the dimples for a visor, but none of my modern visors
work. Does anyone know what a vintage visor looks like, or what the dimples
were used for?
Posted or emailed responses appreciated.
Thanks,
CS
