Pardon my ignorance, but are these decals on the wrong side for an SS

Sorry, disregard that, just had another look.....

There are plenty of examples of reversed runic SS helmets with the decals on the opposite sides of what factory applied decals would be. They typically are reissued helmets like this one with SS Pocher decals (like this one) over police decals when found reversed.

Just making the point that there are plenty of reversed SS decaled helms out there.

Letland as I thought this looks like a good one. Reissued from what might be a former black painted parade SS helmet, as so many of these SS transitional reissues were, them outfitted with the Pocher decals like yours.

Too bad it's missing the liner but thus far I think you still have a hell of a helmet.

I've heard a lot plohovo particularly where there earlier were all communists. but in Germany, I have confirmed audentichnost all decals. And who wants to bet - is ready to sign a contract, to argue your case. Hi sincerely to you and respecting Dmitri
