I'm turning to forum members for some help in producing an authentic reproduction helmet for our display. Curtis at Historic Helmets is working on a project for us to provide nine authentic "vintage" reporduction helmets to be used as part of our Broncos memorabilia display.

One of the helmets that we are looking to add to this collection is a 1998 era helmet for the Broncos' newest member of their Ring of Fame--former running back Terrell Davis (see photo below). This helmet is of an era outside of the vitage range that HH can typcially do. Already having in hand a '97-vintage Ridell Authentic retail piece that pretty closely approximates our target, there are really just a few detail items that we would need to acquire to make our project helmet seem more "lifelike".

If anyone can be of help in pointing me in the right directon for a source (or sources) to acquire the following, it would be greatly appreciated:

Clear warning sicker w/ white font to replace the opaque sticker found on the retail version
NFL Shield sticker
"Broncos" rear bumper sticker
Circular hemet sticker no. "30"
Four-point hard chinstrap (Navy?)
Proper facemack clips (what style are throse shown in the photo?)
Mouthpiece (what style is that shown in the photo?)Finally, does anyone know the secret of removing the retail warning sticker (ie heat, alcohol, etc)?

Thanks much in advance for any assistance offered.

Best regards,
