Identifying a M1 helmet

**MisterSwag** · 05-08-2019, 08:20 PM

Hi there,

I would like some help identifying this m1 helmet. I don't have more pictures, sorry.
I'm not sure if it helps, but the helmet was found in an attic in the Netherlands.
There seems to be a stamp in the liner, but it is way to blurry to read. The seam is at the back
of the helmet and the swivel is not fixed.

I’m not familiar with European helmet to be able to Identify the maker. Good looking and complete helmet.

Dutch M53 helmet, if I read the stamp in the rim correctly it says 'LS' which means Linneman Schnauzer, a German firm and one of the contractors for the M53.
