complete bogus helmet from top to bottom.
A truly awful attempt
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
What always amuses me are the nefarious stamps used on different items. A document stamp on a helmet liner?
Ade nailed it. Complete fake with soooo bad decals. This faker should be listed in the morons gallery of crooks.
Is the decal existed or is total fantasy?
There are period photos of the HJ decal that this fake is patterned upon on M34 shells on lockers in a barracks in the Baer book. The helemts in the picture in the book have the HJ decal on the left side. I have been collecting for more than 30 years and have yet to see an original. Jim G.
