This is a community where what would be a regular sale anywhere else can turn into an intervention. If you didn't feel pained about it, you wouldn't have volunteered the additional info. Do what your lady says. She's the one whose opinion you probably need to care about, if you're going to care abou...

I hope always to deserve the love that you graciously share, and I try every day to be the man that you see me as. You're all the best and when I have a little break from the long separations from my wife and child, I will return to the life of arms again and stronger for it. John Jehan de Pelham, e...

Jehan de Pelham

Okay, and sold out for now. More to come soon.

You're a great lady, Gwen. Those of is who love the life of arms and feel its call, and who have ladies who understand it, are fortunate in a way that other men cannot imagine. I met my wife wearing harness (not the one that I have now), so she's as much bitten by the bug as I am. A 406 is what a bo...

Jehan de Pelham

Okay.

Strange development. My lady wife has commanded me not to sell this helmet. I must obey.

Sorry for the confusion.

Eldric, got your order, they'll be on their way ASAP. Kenwrec, info sent. Okay, Wulfric or I am willing to sell all the Charles IV ducats in my personal stash to do one more order of five right now, first cash in the PayPal gets it now. If there are two orders posted simultaneously, I'll send them a...

PM sent, Sir Vitus. Also, because my wife is super busy and has asked for relief until I get home in about a week, I need to let everyone know that I won't be able to ship until the 14th. Hey, by the way, since people are asking, this is what I am trying to get. This--not any crazy financial worries...

Jehan de Pelham

Eldric, thanks so much! Kenwrec, I have 5 in my personal stash, they're yours if you want them. Pending payment on these, SOLD OUT for the time being. EDIT: And I just realized something very bad, from my perspective. I messed up on the size. These are 21mm (a little over 13/16"), not 26mm (a l...

Ah, yes. Add $3 for Canada, $5 for Overseas for shipping.

Thanks for bringing that up!

I'm in a catch-22. I can't sell what I have, an I can't order more until I sell what I have. ; )

No takers? I'll let it sink down after this, but it will remain open for bids starting at $750. Once a bid is made, I'll give 48 hours to respond, because I know this is a big purchase and oftentimes involves consultations with folks in the house. Best, John Jehan de Pelham, ecuyer and servant of Si...

Jehan de Pelham

Okay, one shorty for Angus, one larger for Geirmundr, That'll be $120 each, you can either send a check to (Edited due to change) Let me know if you need them quick and include your address information. That leaves 5 talls and 2 shorts in stock and ready to ship. Thanks very much, John

Yeah, it's not there yet. I need to settle in to a good revamp when I return from Iraq. Things tend to get sloppy when I am gone.

Be of good cheer, Murdock! When I purchased this helmet I knew that I may not have it forever. I have a thing that I wish to have which is just as irreplaceable, or at least I thought so until recently, a replica--or at least a better copy than the original--of my first car. Besides, it was just sit...

Thanks, Jeff, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one going chin down, sword out this year. It's extremely heartening though that Alan is pressing forward to keep the glede burning. I'll be out in Monterey in late June, for a course start date of 7 July. I wouldn't miss coming down a time or several. ...

Ah, cool. You'll meet him sometime, I wager. Cool guy.

These shields are intentionally small. They are your way of telling the other guy you aren't scared of him. : )

No need to add postage. That's included. Just note what you're ordering in the notes so Lorelei can keep it straight--sometimes she has to ask me what a payment is for and it's because people forget to note what they want. : ) These are the same size as the others. Ducats stayed pretty stable in ter...

For sale: A lot of 50 replica gold ducats, struck in bright brass. These are replicas of Ducat coins (EDIT: 21mm--I am so sorry, I had said these were 26mm and that is wrong. I can only hope that the quality will overcome the difference in size, which is considerable) struck during the reign of Char...

Okay, I got dimensions. The smaller heaters are 22" across the top, and 22" from the center of the top to the bottom. Nice classical shape like you see in effigies, slight arc. Built like a brick shite-house. The larger ones are 22" across the top, 25 1/4" tall. These are not war...

Jehan de Pelham

Lorelei got me some measurements. It is 25 1/2" inner circumference at the temples. I wear a 7 3/8" and the helmet is about spot on, not hugely oversized. Photos will be coming soon. SOLD. I also found an unused Forth Armory wedge riveted aventail as well that I'll put up here as well. $17...

Jehan de Pelham

I do. I have plans for a penny coin from the civic money of Metz, and a Gros Tournois or WeiBpfennig (a Groat) coin of Aachen, both from the mid to late 14th Century. I also have a mid 14th century Ducat that I'll post photos of soon. John Jehan de Pelham, ecuyer and servant of Sir Vitus www.mron.org

Oh, I certainly do. Jeff Hedgecock put up a bascinet that he had and I approached him about doing a hounskull visor in spring for it. Got it summer before last just before--actually, during CiT--so I am set. There has to be a photo of me lurking around somewhere with me wearing it, so I can market t...
