Hi Brabander
I think you are right, it is OK that they look very "damaged" but as you state the innerwork is missing, I will try to press the Price Down, I am interested because I have never seen this change of the before, and as Gunny said they could be factory emblem ?
Regards

Yes indeed i also think its a factory emblem but i can´t say wich factory can be a small factory because i don´t regocnize the emblem.

Hi Brabander
If it is a small factory it could be Danish, perhaps the helmets has been used here in Denmark, I will se if I can find any info about the cross on the helmets here i Denmark.

Yes thats possible they use this helmets also in de occupied areas factory´s somthimes here in holland you see this helmets form dutch factory´s.
But carefull this helmets where still used after the war in the factory´s because there was nothing else left.They used it for protection for the head and somthimes factory fire service.

Yes, thats what I also thought, maybe they still have been used after the war as there was nothing else left
