Re: Hitler Youth Helmet
The helmet is certainly original. The HJ decal is what is crucial here. A good clear close up photo taken in natural daylight is what is needed.

Re: Hitler Youth Helmet
I agree with Ade that the helmet shell, paint and liner are all good. The diamond decal is the big question mark. Baer has a picture of an M42 SD Luft with a diamond HJ decal under the Swastika in his book, but I am not aware of any period photographs of such a decal. The only period photos of HJ decaled helmets that I recall seeing are pictures of M34 civic shells with HJ decals that are full standard sized decals with the HJ diamond inside of the black, bordered shield. I am not convinced that the small HJ diamond helmet decals are original period applied insignia. Jim G.

I have yet to see an original HJ helmet.
Bet you'd all say this one was fake
GREAT PICTURE - and yes, up until a minute ago if I saw that helmet on a table at a show I would have walked right by! Are there any period photos of a helmet with the small diamond HJ decal? I would love to see one. Cheers, Jim G.
