    I'm with Frank on that, the proportions of the details aren't the same on my LS helmet (font, the dots on the top part of the feather thing, well in general the black lines are a lot thinner than on mine)
    I thought there was something odd about that one, but I didn't want to say anything wrong in case it was original and I was just being silly.

    P.S. here's a shot of the LS decal on my only LS helmet, czechoslovak vz. 32-34 reissued to LS

    it is unfortunately a post-war created decal, and am in agreement with Frank. Besides the poor graphics and incorrect scroll font, a hallmark of this decal is the lower right hand acorn. The vertical lines are continuous on period decals, and not broken as seen on this particular version.
