Looks like the real deal to me.

Yep-Looks straight to me too. I'd say the original owner Definitely did Not have a good day.... Nice helmet,btw ! William

This helmet looks good to me as well.

Judging by the patina and rust near the damage, I would say that the damage is period as well, or at least immediately post-war.

The decals are right as rain SE Police decals, and yes it appears that he had a bad day. Jim G.

Some more pics. The liner and chinstrap are really stiff from the blood. Just hope that the strap doesnt break!
