Nice helmet, I've never seen one like this before. I'm surprised at the amount of variation in civil defense helmets, it would be interesting to know if they were officially sanctioned to a spec, private purchase.

Hey Steve, I have been seeing many variations since I started paying attention to them.Some are quite odd looking and are not the usually seen types so my guess is they were likely made for retail sale to the public.I like them because of the variety and reasonable prices (At the moment)
