Wiley Post Helmet (Replica)

The museum has an exhibit featuring a replica of the pressure suit helmet belonging to Oklahoma native and aviation pioneer Wiley Post. The actual suit is apparently at the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum, although I could not find it in their collections database.

The deputy director of the museum tells me that the replica was made by a metal fabrication company in Oklahoma.
