Cheers everyone,
I was able to acquire this unusual Fallschirmjager helmet today from an antique shop. I bought it under the assumption that it was a reproduction however this is not like most reproductions that I have seen. The helmet is definitely old, and has the line that runs along the rolled rim consistent on ET manufactured helmets, however there are no makers marks. I placed the helmet along side my original Fallschirmjager helmet and it is much smaller, almost like a child’s helmet. My question is could this be a period helmet from a child’s uniform, or just an old reproduction. I have looked but could not find any similar reproduction helmets such as this one, and it is much too small for an adult to wear. (P.s. the bolts and chinstrap were added by myself and did not come with the shell).
