Default Displaying old/souvenir/expired helmets

Simply put, looking for ideas (pictures would be great too) of how you are displaying old, souvenir, and/or expired helmets.

To date I've basically seen two ways of displaying: hanging them individually from "tool hooks" on a wall, or sitting on a shelf with or without glass/plastic display case around them. Any other great ideas?

Thanks in advance.

I cut one of my old helmets in half with a band saw and mounted it on a plaque to hang on the wall. Old and expired, so what the heck;

I like the plaque, maybe add miniature "track maps" of the tracks you've driven.

Default get the old ones painted

The old ones are good candidate for a custom spray or replica of a favorite driver.
A buddy had one painted like an old fighter plane with the 1940's pin up girl on the side,
Mine are just catching dust ... cutting them in half is pretty clever.
