    Another of mine, RO&Co made, 1939 dated, no maker or date on the mkI liner, only the size. Sadly most of the paint has flaked off the exterior.

    And one more, Briggs Motor Bodies 1939, with a very badly damaged 1938 Vero mkI liner. Glossy brown paint with 10th St James scratched on to the upper surface of the rim, not sure but possibly Scouts or something of that ilk, though I could find no history of such a Scout group. It came from Swansea via a boot sale to me.

    This is NHSR (National Hospital Service Reserve) painted helmet is the only one I have that adds anything new I think. I believe the paint job is 50s in date, while the helmet I believe to be a 1940 BMB, although I can't really see due to the paint. I did have another, almost identical example which I stupidly sold

    Oh and Jerry, this is the one from that place in Tenby

    Thanks for showing it James. They did not have any helmets when I was there, but it is so cramped they might have.

    Also thanks to all who have added their mkII's to this thread, great to see such a big response so quickly and hopefully many more to come.
    Regards,
