I was looking at getting this helm reproduced and would like to find out more info and pictures of different angles ( top, underneath, visor open, etc )
Thanks in advance!

Iv seen jeff wasson's version pop up a lot while searching for this helm. He did a great job on it! As much as I enjoy looking at reproductions I'm wanting to gather as many photos as I can of the original 
Thanks for posting the info Churburg S16 bascinet with S17 visor  That'll help a lot while I track down more photos.
@ Piotr- Thank you for posting those photos! I find the second one rather interesting. The visor isn't formed around the helm like you would expect from other bascinets :/ I wonder if this was handled wrong, or that it was actually made like that?

It's typical for bascinets with houndskull visor I guess, others examples from this period also have such gaps between visor and skull. It's space left for lining and avential.
