    Thank you Skipper ;-)) Also, they had another helmet with a diff OT insignia on it. I wish I could remember on which site I saw that one listed on but--if I ever find it? ill let you know. Anyway, that helmet in particular, had a large OT motif on each side in white lettering. If I also recall correctly? that helmet I saw had a brownish paint job too ;-))
