Ahh that was a little lower than i was hoping, but I am still pretty happy with it. Thank you for the comparison!

It can be disappointing sometimes. Prices are always changing and so is what people are willing to pay.

Hey man, like I said on Facebook... I think this one might be an M35 'shorty'. Wait for the opinions of collectors who are more experienced with those, though. I know Jim (helmet2id) has one or two.

Looks OK like Original M-35 it may have had a camo type of woodchip paint on it at one time kind of looks like it there is probably a maker stamp in skirt Q ET EF SE or something with size probably covered over or corroded. Not a bad helmet for a shell. M-35 double decals are sought after and fairly expensive in the original state. timothy

Thanks Timothy, I think there was a nice camo/field repaint at one point. Is there anything that i can do that might boost the colors? I've been reading about the oxalic acid, but i do not think this helmet falls in that category. Would renaissance wax help preserve and maybe help the color a bit? Or just leave as is? I also looked pulled the liner band back and saw it was dated 1936 and saw the word "Berlin Koff...." I couldnt make out the rest after "Koff". I looked for the maker stamp in the skirt, but could only find what looks like a 3.
Thank you for all the help guys!
