Gray Metallic Arthur Fulmer Motorcycle Helmet

This metallic gray Arthur Fulmer is in nice shape. The trim on the Fulmers that I have are chrome like this one.

The graphics that came on these are light reflective.

Nice Fulmer logo on the back.

Like Arai helmets, Fulmers linings are high quality. The logo top pad is a nice touch.

Original Motorcycle Art

I know this blog is about vintage motorcycle helmets but I couldn't help it. I also gather up motorcycle art. Prints if I can get them but original stuff is what I really like. Motorcycles are not a subject most artist are interested in so that makes it all the more difficult to come by.
The Honda S 90 above is a small drawing done in colored and regular pencil. When I look at this I think that Honda S 90 was either the object of his affection or desire.

This is a Motocross racer done in acrylic. It has a $40 price on the back and a starving artists stamp on it. Hope he got something to eat because I do appreciate having it.

This is a wire art board track racer. It is as close as I will come to owning a boardtracker. Kinda looks like a Harley Pea Shooter.

I don't know what to say about this one. It's done in oil and it looks like an Indian to me. Check out the naked woman on the bed in the back ground.

Classic Blue Buco Enduro Helmet

This is a well preservered Buco Enduro model helmet. It had an amazing amount of dust on it as it has been hanging for a number of years. The Enduro was a nice looking helmet, I believe it was one of their last helmets before they went out of business.

It has a unique shape. The strap with the snap button on back was used to hold your goggle strap. That's what I have been told, never used one myself.

This neck piece on the back is an interesting feature. I suppose the collar of your jacket would cover this, giving you an added layer of insulation. Or perhaps it kept dust, mud and grime out.

Red Metal Flake Templar Motorcycle Helmet From 1973

This red metal flake helmet was sold under the name Templar.The sticker on the back is cool, looks like a crest. I suppose this was to make you feel as though you were one of the Knights Templar.

It has a build date of 1973 by T&C Mfg. This is an off brand for sure.

McHal Paulson Vintage Motorcycle Helmet Flip Bubble Shield

This is an interesting bubble shield with a flip up attachment. It is marked McHal on one side of the bubble and Paulson on the other. As you can see it had suction cups to help attach it to the helmet. The soft plastic band that goes around the helmet is no longer soft so I have not tried to stretch and fasten it. Motorcycle helmets and shields have come a long way since the sixties and seventies.

Motorcycle Art Captain America Pencil & Ink Drawing

I know this is a motorcycle helmet blog but I thought about occasionally throwing in some art. Being a sucker for original motorcycle art work I picked up this pencil and colored ink Easy Rider at a local swap meet for a couple of bucks. It has Penn Graphics written on it, don't know the who's or what's to that but the price was right. This is the only chopper type work that I have.

Silver Metalflake Buco GT Helmet

Here is a favorite with the Custom or Bobber type riders. It is a Buco GT in silver metal flake. This and the Captain America helmet are always the first ones guys want to buy when they see all the helmets in the garage. I believe these are being reproduced in Japan. This one is an original.

Tomorrow I will post a red metal flake Arthur Fulmer.
