Thanks Roberto ,i have my civil war period badge like yours affixed to the model 26 ,can i ask does yours have two pins like mine or one vertical slider ,my latter badge has the one slider ,i believe the early m42's had the insignia directly brazed onto the helmet ,my m42 not unlike your's has a strange textured almost plastic like coating ,what are your thought's on the shell coating Roberto

A pleasure for me to help you, James.
I see you have a nice collection, in the first picture I see a nice M33 with the Spanish badge, it's interesting because it's a first production 1935/36, precisely the type used in the Civil War period, it has rivets rounded of first type.
Cheers
Roberto

I would very much appreciate that James. They just are not that common here across the pond. I have found the three pronged one that were wore on the caps but have not had any luck with the single prong for the helmets!!!!
Thanks

Hey James out of shear coincidence I was going to post up my M26 Spanish helmet tomorrow which has the Franco badge on it. Shall I post it on this thread or just start a new thread?
