Question: Do we have an idea of when Don Post started including the COA with the Deluxe helmets? You would think it would have been with DPD #001 but I've been saving pics of as many of the DPD helmets as I can over the years and the lowest number I have with a photo or notation of the COA is 600. I find that a lot of them above that number include the COA but, so far, I haven't seen an earlier example.

Anyone have anything?

My #525 came with the COA. It didn't have the number stamped on the COA though (I don't think any did). Just a single sided color print of mostly blue text... which of course stated that the DPDLX was cast from a mold of a screen-used ESB helmet.

Rummaging through some boxes in my garage, I found a small stash of Star Wars stuff I hadn't looked through in years including the book The Star Wars Visual Dictionary within which I had placed my COA. It's a bit rough but it is 20 years old. And like one who proudly shows off baby pictures at any opportunty, here's my DPDLX with the COA.
