Hello there,
As I was doing a bit of research on an OCD helmet I found in the back of an antiques store a little while back I noticed that the heat stamp was different to any of the ones I could find online. Rather than the common US GOV'T PROPERTY with the small Mccord stamp underneath it just has a larger Mccord stamp in the middle of the brim with no sign of a government property stamp anywhere else. Does anyone know the reason for this? Did the stamp change at some point or was this sold to a different country or something? The shell has no markings except for some very faded writing with a black marker that the previous owner/s put on there.
Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated
