A friend of mine, recently, was able to grab this one out of an estate and I thought it worthy of a share. It is marked everywhere on the liner and the straps with what appears to be the same kanji so I presume its a name. The cover is in very nice shape, showing some use (not quite evident in the photos) and some rust stains on the inside as they all do and has a stamp. The anchor on the helmet is a little soft on the details but it looks right to me and it looks like its been there a long time. Liner has the right leather and stitching and my understanding is that the rivets are the correct naval rivets on the exterior. Best ABN
