Re: M1917 Austrian Transitional ?
You can sell it here on the forum , the helmet is a textbook single decal Austrian. Very nice but unfortunately the water damage will reflect heavily on the price.
I'm thinking value wise 600-750$ max.

Hi, and welcome to the forum!
You have been given sound advice.
I think even with the water damage it is a great example. DO NOT be tempted to clean it in any way.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: M1917 Austrian Transitional ?
Thanks guys,
Yeah, the water damage is too bad, the helmet had been sitting in that basement, probably in the same box of toys, since the early sixties when the house was built.
On the other hand how often does one receive a 600.00 gift? And the education while researching, wow, no wonder you guys get hooked!

You are right David , with finds like that you have to take what is offered no doubt about it. Nice to see these popping out of the woodwork.
I was thinking that it may be a double decal but that the water damaged it entirely.
Still the helmet is complete and untouched , please keep it in as found condition (like Ade previously mentioned).

Maybe a close-up of the decal area would reveal something.
