I am enjoying posting these old helmets. Gives me a chance to clean up some of them that have years of dust on them. This is a Wheels Of Man Bumble Bee style helmet. I originally had two, sold the lesser of the two and gave this one a space. It has been a number of years since I have seen any Wheels Of Man motorcycle product.
There is the name and style number right on the back. If John Belushis SNL bumble bee skit would have taken to wheels this would be the hat of choice.
It is a nice looking helmet and adds contrast to my accumulation.
This is the construction sticker from inside the helmet. As you can see it is dated 11/27/74. A fairly well preserved 35 year old helmet. The inspector named Petra actually signed her work. Don't see much of that anymore.
