Title: 2003 Airese Currie Game Helmet
Post by: ClemsonTiger on March 23, 2014, 11:40:37 PM
We recently came across a Clemson game used helmet, and did not know whose helmet it was. After acquiring the helmet, we looked up the serial number inside the helmet, looked at when it was last certified, and photo matched the style of helmet and some hit marks. We found out it was Airese Currie's helmet from 2003. Now the helmet has other numbers on the inside, but it seems as though he was the last to wear it as it is an older style helmet and he changed to a newer style helmet in 2004 (from what we can tell from game photos and footage). It is in not so good condition, and we will be restoring it these next few weeks.

UPDATE: We have finished the restoration on the helmet, and the pictures do not do it justice. Paint on this helmet is amazing.

Nice that you are able to find these and restore them instead of them just getting lost in time. Can't wait to see what it looks like after you restore it.

How bad was it when you got it? Going to have to paint the helmet?
