Hard to determine, but i like the helmet and decal, i have a Luftwaffe one that has an similar - exceptionally well preserved decal while the helmet itself has rusted heavily on some parts. Very nice helmet.
How does the inside look?
Thanks Adravor,
I was looking for a relic with a nice decal for some time now, so I'm happy with it.
I think a Luftwaffe relic would be next on my list, would like to see a picture of yours if you have one.
The inside of the helmet is rough, my guess is there was a lot of caked-on rust in there that was cleaned out.
Interesting, the Linerband is indeed really far gone, worse then the outside.
Here is mine, its a Size 60 (i could still read the size on the linerband), and i suspect it has been in contact with fire/something hot, as the paint is very bubbily in some parts, it was found in a dump hole in the german Erzgebirge, together with an SS helmet and a few others.
Wow that's a small size, a flakhelper maybe? Interesting helmet.
Quiet possible, and yes definitly. Its one of these relic helmets - like yours, which are special and really a keeper!
Yes, I agree!
