re: Need a little help: post war German helmet
Hi Wolfman,
I checked the internet and Ludwig Baer's book Vom Stahlhelm zum Gefechtshelm (band 2). Olaf was quite right. The shell is a German M1 and was manufactured by Quist. There were actually two factories producing this helmet: F.W. Quist and Linnemann & Schnetzer. The liner is original to this helmet and was made by Maury & Co, Offenbach. This was one of six factories producing liners. I think you have a nice helmet. Rather rare in this condition.
Cheers, Emile

nice Police helmet with the Wurttemberg decal, this one is often called the Model 40/52
I head this early post war helmet was mfg for a short time? until they made the other variations with different types of liners, and some with no air vents.
