Merritt-Chapman were engaged by the US Government to evaluate salvage operations and whether it would be possible to raise her, or to carry out a diving salvage. It was their conclusion that operations were not possible, and the New York papers all reported the view as definitive, demonstrating that MC&S already had considerable reputation for expertise in maritime salvage.
This helmet is in excellent condition with original glass, retaining plates and bolting. The original patina on the copper shell and bronze fittings is gorgeous.
This rare and beautiful antique diving helmet would be a wonderful addition to your antique collection, office, living room or man cave! Good luck and thanks for looking!
