This is a helmet I purchased about 15 years ago, from a well known dealer. It is a well used combat lid with a partial chin strap, a reinforced aluminum liner band, and a most unfortunate hit on the runic decal. For some reason I left the price tag on the piece - ah, the good ole days! Hope you like it. Jim G.

That's a beauty! They're just so darned hard to find at a good price these days... anyone know any good websites for obtaining such a helmet?

I would kill for those kinds of prices! How much were single decal Luftwaffe M40's going for in those days?

If I recall correctly, a decent SD LW could be had for about $150. I should have stocked up then. If I had, I could retire now. Alas, I didn't, and I fear I will die at my desk when I am 80. Cheers, Jim G.
