    Default Original Paint and/or Decals?

    I purchased this helmet back in 1981 and have not altered it in any way.
    I have found no definitive answer to the authenticity of the decals.
    Paint appears to be original but have never seen this combination of decals on the same helmet.
    Has anyone seen this before and do you think this may be original?
    Thank You for any help, Greatly appreciated

    For future reference would this combination of decals ever exist together in period? Heer Adler with SS/civil red swas? Wouldn't it just be the Heer Adler and national tricolor shield if anything concerning double decals? Just seen this was asked in the OP. IMO No. Best regards.

    No as the NSDAP decal is a political decal so only SS and Polizei (and related branches) would use it. Paint is also not original.

    Thank You all for the input. I suspected as much, but it's great to have other knowledgeable opinions to confirm.
