Hmm. Not keen on the liner - looks like a red/brown Norwegian reissue.........

Hi,the helmet looks like a good one with a lacqured decal but as walkwolf says the liner does look quite dark.Some better pictures of the liner would be good,this helmet stands a chance.

Look at the pins holding the leather to the band. You want to see FLAT head alloy pins NOT dome head brass ones!

The shell and decal all look good, still has a nice Luftwaffe blue color to it. The liner I would like some pics of. I'm not convinced by just the one pic.

Liner looks norwegian to me also, but other than that great helmet, better photos of the liner are needed

The helmet first posted also has a newer paint job. Note how it is
painted around the eagle and swastika in pic #1.........

You sure that's not the lacquer showing around the swastika?

Edit: I have yet to look at this lid on a computer monitor. I will do that tonight. I do have some new concerns that the shell may have been painted over. Some areas look of pitting under the paint.

Seller never responded to me with new pictures, i guess there is something that he doesnt want me to see.

all the best,
