Relic M40 shell, my second German helmet ever:)
Hi Guys,
Just got this relic M40 shell - which is my second German helmet in my collection - I already have a relic M35 (will post pics in my next post) and maybe by tomorrow; I'll have a nice relic M42.
Now, I usually collect field gear - and before I get into helmets (I do want to get a nice conditioned one - when I get some money together), I just wanted to have a nice relic helmet of each type (M35,40,42), which I can study. Now, I can tell the difference between each type...
Ok, for now, I have seller's photos - before "clean up" - but even now I can see some original color under that surface-rust.
I don't have the helmet yet, when I get it, I'll update...
The price was 25 EU.
Cheers,
Fabe

A nice trio, and a good plan you have to learn the differences by handling these cheaper shells. You will have a big collection of complete helmets before you know it. They get under your skin slowly

Try to clean the M40 when you get it, IMO there is an outline of the decal on the left. You never know

Good eye! I asked a seller to at least pour some vater on the shell, where the decal should be, here's a pic:
