    Liner is exactly like my unmarked M35. I think it may be an early contract helmet. Judging by the paint on the liner, it may have been repainted in olive or green at some point. The gold paint was obviously some post war biker business. Too bad it was stripped down. NH

    Awesome, i took a gamble on it. I told the guy that i have no way of knowing if its original and payed only $150 for it. That helmet is so small....... germans had small heads back then lol.

    Thank you all for the help. Just FYI, I'll start thread in restoration's and show progress; my idea is to make a double decal HEER helmet.
