Waffen SS DD Helmet - Opinions?

**alekss** · 07-05-2014, 05:57 PM

Hi Gents,

Had a look at this Waffen SS double decal helmet this morning - a transitional piece (M18 I'm guessing) with what to me appear to be Pocher decals. The shell does not have any maker or lot number markings on it. Alas, this is not an area I have much expertise in, hence I was hoping for some help and assistance in determining whether it's authentic or not. Here are a few pics I took with my phone camera (apologies for the quality).

All input/opinions are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Aleks

I'm afraid the decals are both bogus.

Have to agree. The rest of it including paint, liner, and chinstrap are also bad

I am in complete agreement with SSamir on this one I am afraid. The party decal is especially bad, looks like a sticker that's been scrubbed and the runes end to low for a Pocher. Leon.
