Won't really comment on the liner, but that is one nice looking M42!
Looks like it could be blood stained and has rotted part of the liner. A Quist m42 is not something you see every day. Nice catch.
That's a Nice-Looking Shell...Welcome to the Forum!
cheers, Glenn

Thank you, everyone has made me feel welcome! I will try to tamp down my enthusiasm for posting my helmets for a bit
A Q M42 still eludes me, I have been looking for one for decades. Nice helmet. The liner is a grim reminder of the cost of war. Jim G.
Thank you. Beginners luck, second helmet I bought. I had intended originally to exclusively collect Quist helmets; I quickly realized that that limited my options.
I only learned after study that Q42s were a somewhat rarity.
Rare indeed. I would have snapped it up in almost any condition!
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Well done, a super helmet and the wearer certainly appears to have been a battle casualty. Leon.
