M35 "something".

I dont know what to think, I can tell you that

On first inspection it looks like its been used with various insignia on it so would guess, rather than re-issue... Some sort of prop. I do not believe it to be original SS.

maybe you could post a picture of the liner? that would help a little too

Thanks, Stinschen.

Odd that the 'ex-decal' outline has a circular shape. I suppose you really can't say
'SS', as there is nothing there to back it up. National decals at some time were
also removed from that side of Heer combat lids.

I think that by associating the SS with a helmet like this to try and make a sale,
is like, how they say: "Trying to make a silk purse from a sows ear".
Heer helmet = $450............SS helmet = $1200.

Without any real provenance or documentation the
motivation is only the money, IMHO.

Thank you for your help.

Here's the give-away. I don't like it one bit, It says nothing to me, apart from the black over spray where, no doubt there has been a water slide decal at some point, and some ones tried to age it

John, that was very helpful, thank you
