The Christies catalogue of the Axel Guttmann collectionis now out- received to-day. An astonishing collection up for auction, with pride of place given to the Imperial italic H "mouse" helmet. Plus 5 other Roman helmets (including a tinned Imperial Gallic). Other helmets, swords etc too numerous to mention (e.g. did you know that Greek hoplite winged helmets existed- I didn't). Viewing at Christies South Ken, London from Sunday 25th April to 27th before they disappear into private collections. Strongly recommended.<br>
