I have a few I'd like to display but don't like the 'tilted over to one side look' of the single-flap while sitting on a shelf. I thought helmet stands might be a good idea but haven't found any decent ones at a reasonable price.

Anyone have any recommendations for displaying batting helmets? :confused:

Pics are appreciated.


Thanks in advance.

Most of what we need, in terms of display for our hobby is lacking. Home remedies are the only way out. I choose,for helmet display,a game used bat to help in the display. The bat from the same player-to evenly prop up the helmet-is what I prefer. I place the item(s)on an end table in the display room.

Cigars and Jack Daniels optional

I have a helmet (double flap) displayed in a BCW case with black base. Its a great looking case. It came with a couple pieces of clear plastic that together can be used to hold up the flapless side of the helmet. Not horribly expensive but not cheap - $86.

That said i think they sell the ear flap stands separately, but I cannot find it on their website. Perhaps you could call their customer service if you wanted just the helmet stand.

How many green helmets do you think they have a season per player considering they only where it on Sunday home games. I'm guessing there's anywhere from 1-3 helmets per player, but that's just a guess.
