Can someone post a comparison of the bulgarian and italian helmets? I'm curious as to what the actusl differences were.

sound like the more desirable interwar spanish m33 the 2 holes are for the francoist eagle insignia heres my exampleAttachment 287040Attachment 287041

No such thing as a Interwar Spanish M33. These are the M33 supplied in SCW that were postwar modified by adding a small buckle to which the Eagle of St John was fixed . The one you received should be a genuine Italian prewar M33 with the welding spots for the buckle removed , these are the holes.
