M42 For Review!

[GIZMO8Z]

My best, good, e-friend Josh (Newbie on WRF) recently purchased this lid. He wanted me to post up the seller's pictures for review! The helmet is current in transit to Josh and he said he will post up high quality pictures once he has it in-hand.

Looks a nice named M42 Joe - I see no probs with a scratched off decal - done post war for all the RIGHT reasons! adds to the legitimacy of it IMO.
Cheers, Dan

Don't see any problems.

15 letters in that last name! Might be a record on a helmet, I wont even attempt to pronounce it!

Good looking honest lid there Joe

[Adrian Stevenson]

Looks good.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks Joe for posting my seller pics while I am having internet issues,lol ......once I get the lid, I will take better quality pics guys and repost. Any thoughts on the decal being field removed by original soldier as opposed to Vet removed? I can't wait to get it, paint looks really nice !!!!!!

[Adrian Stevenson]

You will never know the answer to that one: it can be whatever you want it to be! The rust patina has some age to it which matches the paint loss areas to the inside.

Cheers, Ade.

Ade is correct. You may never know. Could go either way. Good possibility it was wartime done. Still a good looking helmet.
