Authentic Miller Dunn,DIVINHOOD Diving Helmet, style 1
(divingheritage.com)
Introduction
Probably the most famous of all shallow
water helmets. They were produced by the Miller Dunn Company from Miami Florida.
These helmets were used by the Navy and by civilians for many years
Style one
The first Miller Dunn helmet came on the
market in 1916. It is made of sheet copper with
brass fittings and a 6" round faceplate. Four external lead weights are needed to submerge and balance the
helmet. They are held in place by two copper strips on front and rear, bolts and
wingnuts. Miller Dunn
introduced the name DIVINHOOD. A diving apparatus so simple anyone can
use it!
I've added few pictures of part of my collection to my other listings.
The helmet is a very good condition condition ,
This helmet is a very aerly STYLE 1 , and as such has no engraving on the side .
(divingheritage.com comments on that :Some helmets
had the name and patent stamped in on both sides.
Some however did not. We presume these are the later helmets.)
I assure that this helmet is 100% authentic.
The helmet has a great patina and has few dents and dings , but in relatively good condition
I can provide the buyer with a new set of weights at additional cost.
Please look at the attachments. to have a better idea.
You may look at Leon Lyons book "Helmets Of The Deep".
