M1 helmet shell - identification needed

[Neil Hever]

Hi folks, I just picked this up at the Ag Hall show for $85. I thought that was a good deal. Inside it is marked with a black stamped D and 7. The heat stamp number is 1053. It is a front seam, swivel bale, dark green/cork, manganese rim example with bar tacked cloth chin strap. I plan to match it up with an MSA liner. Any idea who made it? NH

If you post a side profile shot the folks who are more experienced in M1 helmets may be able to help you out.

if theres no "s" stamped by the heat stamp number then its a McCORD made shell

No S stamp - it must be a McCord. Thanks! NH
