I've also not been able to find a period photo with the little wedding helmet.
So the theory that they were given as a present is still a possibility.
Your helmet above is a good one though - i've not seen these faked. In addition, if you look at the decal on my SS wedding helmet you will see it certainly has a lot of age to it. The Heer and Luft helmets are still moderately cheap. The SS, which are very hard to find, are over twice the price.

Hi Nick ,
Thank you for your addition! It is a pity that no old photos have been found (yet).
Actually, only then can we say with certainty whether they are really WW2 products.
I will continue to look for conclusive evidence. old photos or documents with reference to the small helmets.
I´m confident these are period items. Possibly from the "Ferntrauung" itself or related to the wedding reception thereafter.
Best, Jan
