In olden times many factories would make miniatures of such items as farm equipment, furniture, stoves and such so a salesman could carry many examples to show prospective clients what they would be buying. This worked well in America because of the great distances to travel and difficulty in moving goods. I do not know if this would be applicable to armor in Europe as it would require more personal fitting and I think perhaps the distances traveled between manufacture and customer may not be so great. Beautiful helm no matter what.
