Leonard Myllo, silver and goldsmith, formerly at 462 Venice Boulevard, but who was compelled to move to 838 S. Figueroa St. so as to have more space, is now working on an unique order. He is manufacturing about 100 metal helmets out of gold plated material. The helmets are fashioned somewhat after the French style of war bonnet and are adorned with a rolled crest from the front part of the hat to the rear.
