    British Motorcycle Dispatch Riders' Helmets Mk.II

    The green one was acquired in Japan, and the brown in Canada.

    The Brown one was my first ever Commonwealth headgear.

    Green is dated 1942. Size 7

    Brown is dated 1945. Size 7

    They were both manufactured by the same company BMB - Briggs Motor Bodies.

    The green helmet has a smooth texture, while the brown has a rough texture.

    Alright, I will stop the teasing, let's get started !!

    CDN Anti-Gas Helmet Cover w/ CDN Mk. I Shell

    I got these pair from Canada, and the shell was my first ever CDN Helmet.

    Shell Stampings: AG/C (Windsor ON and the Alumin Good Company) MK 1 1942 E13

    My favorite part is the C-Broad Arrow is still present.

    Anti-Gas Helmet Cover is two toned and applied with heavy coating.

    Male and female stud button for closing.

    It has a strong smell, but I'm ok with it.

    Date: 1942

    Manufactured by: Aristo Gali. Ont
