Akro? Or Vitro?


Recommended Posts

Obviously looks like a helmet Patch but I haven’t seen oneĀ inĀ pink. Pink seems rare in general IveĀ seen aĀ little here or there by different mfgs nothing in big numbers though. Ā I know Vitro did tons of helmetsĀ and I’ve seen the pattern in Akros but I’m never 100% on the make, Vitro or Akro?Ā so any help here is appreciated. Now, all that typed, this Helmet marbleĀ Being a scarce color like I think these are, is thereĀ a name that’s been associated with theĀ colors or pattern other than ā€œHelmet Patchā€ ? None the less it’s a nice one to share and look at JMO.Ā

Juicy Akro IMHO

I love this line!Ā

WVRon, I received so much misinformation on Helmets,Ā so off base. I always felt like Akro Had the Original PatternĀ Then Vitro Made theirs later. I try to use Colors to distinguish between the twoĀ particularly the toneĀ in color. It’s not 100% but it’s a good starting point usually. But the pink in this one with gold Orange and black is a scheme I haven’t seen in these before. When I first got this one I actually thought it might be a Peltier and then I woke up. ButĀ I’ve viewed so many Vitros being labeled AkroĀ maybe an attempt toĀ increase the value of their Marble? Who knows.Ā 
Ā Thanks for all the replies y’all this was fun! - DannyĀ Ā
