Luftwaffe DD helmet..original???
Hi
i am interested in a Luftwaffe DD helmet being offered by
Original militaria from around the world, specialising in WW1 & WW2 . However thought it wise to get some opinions regarding originality before purchasing..it is described on the site as:
LUFTWAFFE DOUBLE DECAL COMBAT HELMET. A good SE66 sized M.35 shell, which retains virtually 75% of its original mid to light blue colour. The national decal is complete with minor abrasions. The national tri-colour is also complete with minor abrasions mainly to the centre diagonal white section. The liner retaining rivet heads have lost their paint. The interior size 59 stamped liner is in generally good condition, it retains much original mid tan colour with its original drawstring. Rodents have had a nibble at the points of two tongue and a small section of the main body of the liner. Aluminium liner band, with square edge buckles. The helmet is with its original strap, which is maker marked and dated '1940'.
Code: 42001 Price: £585.00
Any help appreciated.

I would pass this helmet, the eagle decal is not good at my point, and helmet looks cleaned with sand paper before decals was applied.
Here is one great example for the same price of 850 USD listed in for sale section
