Hello again,
My winter relic helmet has arrived from Europe ( no, not the "other" one ) and as promised earlier, here are some close-up photos.
The decal is no more visible than previously but is still apparent along with original paint ( field grey as well as white ) although no maker stamp can be seen and only a '2' of the lot number is visible.
I am intrigued by the apparent 'burn' mark in the rear skirt entry hole ( red hot shrapnel maybe??? ) and it has already found a place on my 'expanded by necessity' office shelving.
Cheers, Dan

Hi Dan, nice one looker, nice shelves! Yes that is strange that burn mark. Maybe it was hit by a incendiary round or tracer?
nice addition dan ,and im really liking your display's on the shelving
Regards James

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Thanks James & Paul,
The seller is in Moldova and buys from a digger in the Ukraine and doesn't always get ( or ask for ) the background stories.
I have asked him about this one and hope to hear back.
