I think it looks like a new decal on an original shell. See the darker area around the decal as opposed to the rest of the helmet. And the liner looks like it was put in backwards. Stand by for other opinions.
Hmm good point about the darker area. I saw that but didnt put the two tegether.
the decal looks a tad crooked to my eye as well
Can you get a closer pic of the decal???? Have you cleaned the area of the decal???
Liner is definitely in backwards as stated the holes should be at the front.....
This is untouched by me. I bought it as is.
Yeh definitely repro decal, easy to find online.......compare to Eric's example
I disagree regarding the decal, it is fine. The liner is in backwards, but it is an original liner, as is the chinstrap. The draw string is not period. The liner was probably put in by a collector. Overall, it will display well and the exterior is quite representative.
