Italian M-28 for Review

Hello,

Any thoughts on this old beat-up Italian M-28 helmet that may have been used for the German Army? Thanks.

Testing to see if this is visible to other people.

Thanks for the post. 100% authentic Italian sun helmet. As to the German shields attached, anyone’s guess. Could have been done wartime or post-war.
There are plenty of photos of German soldiers wearing these Italian helmets in N Africa, and even a few with these Wappenschild and Hoheitsadlers affixed to them.
Without any provenance, it’s hard to say.
Great collector’s piece regardless.

Interesting helmet. I have not ever had one in hand.
