Your Collection: Helmet Collection
Monday, July 25, 2011 | 9:40 AMThis weeks collection comes from Don and Matthew McDonald in Colona, IL.
"Just wanted to share our helmet collection with everyone. I know we enjoy looking the "Your Collection" link. It is always neat to see the other items out there. I started collecting jerseys back in the 80's and ending up getting around 100 plus pro jersey's. Since then, my boy really likes the custom paint jobs on the helmets, so we started to trade jerseys for helmets. We have meet some great people out that are true collectors. We have about 60 or so helmets now. Some of the paint jobs are just amazing. My favorite ones are the old school ones like the Johnny O'Mara and Matthew favorite one is the Mike Alessi Rockstar helmet. We try to do a supercross to 2 every year and also REDBUDDDD."
Thanks for looking.
