Hi, a nice helmet that looks as though it may have been period repainted and re-decaled. I think I can see the "shadow" of another Adler beneath the existing one. Great to have it named as well. Leon.
That 'snake leg' dates the decal at least to around 1936-37
Wow, thanks for the history.
v/nice helmet.
Nice one Craig!
I still have that SD M42 I got from you a few years back.
The one with the bullet dent in the side......
Cheers, Dan
