SS M35 ET DD 39 dated
Been a while since we've seen a one looker SS here, so here you so, study hard guys.
This is a textbook M35 double decal SS ET 64 lot number 4389 which puts it firmly into 1939 as it's Braunschewig liner date and dome stamp clearly attest. The condition of this one sets it apart. The helmet was picked up in Atlanta from the veteran directly.
Enjoy gents.

A real thing of beauty Doug in a World of crass and ugly fakes and copies.
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
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
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

My God!!!! I am salivating. I didn't think you could still find one like this outside of very expensive dealers and some very old wealthy collections. That is probably my number one dream helmet. What is the current value of these, if you don't mind?

Thanks for the kind words gents. Dave, when I saw this helmet I was wearing those beige shorts, you can imagine what they looked like after I saw this helmet.
Tapalm, there are not many out there like this and they are not cheap, in fact you have to pucker up your schfinkter when you hear it but you only live once right.
