Hi everyone,
I'm asking for help to identify one of my three helmets (I have a couple of other threads elsewhere on this forum in, hopefully, their appropriate subforums asking the same thing).
I bought this helmet in about 2012 at an antique dealer in Tasmania, Australia. I have looked online and I think it's a civil defense helmet rather than an actual combat helmet. The liner is in amazing condition or, much more likely, it is a replacement. Same with the chin strap. There is a piece of paper inside, I'm guessing stating the manufacturer or arms depot. There is some Kanji written in white on the inside, but I do not know what it means in Japanese.
I'd like confirmation or correction from you as this was not a hobby I went into fully as many of you have. All the photos are up the right way on my laptop, but come out rotated on here.
All help is appreciated as I am looking to sell this soon if it's going to be worthwhile. Any thoughts on what it's worth?
