    Default Camo police helmet or junk?

    Morning all, in Cornwall on hols for a week and have just called into a small antique shop I passed. Found the below inside. Pretty sure you’re going to tell me it’s not right, but thought I’d check. Pictures taken on my mobile with a grumpy owner leering at me. They’re as good as I could get. No discernible markings I could see, and I’m struggling to resize/rotate etc on my phone, but worth a go. Thanks in advance.

    Pics are bad and hard to see. But These were civilian helmets so they werent "camo'd" often as they were not in combat. Post war painted perhaps or this one just looks generally "messed with." Its Easy to find a nice original factory M34 Fire Police ... Id hold out for a better example if I was you

    Yes, Apols for the photos, best I can do where I am right now. That’s what I suspected, but good to have it confirmed. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

    I don't like the swastika decal it looks brown rather than red and the white background is very white. I would leave it in the shop if I were you.

    The eagle decal is good , the party shield decal probably too but the photo is too blurry to be sure.
    I'm more concerned about the camo paint but if dirt cheap I'd risk it.

    Thanks. It’s £210 GBP. I could probably get it for £175 but am not up to speed in values as of yet.

    I'd pass on this one, not regarding if the decals are fake or not but more about the messy "camo", anyone announcing a camo police helmet to me would sound like scam ...

    Camo police helmets exist in both civic and combat helmets.

    For its condition and the risk it is a bit high.
