Nice stahlhelm. Given that I/Flak Regiment 4 formed 1936 in Dortmund then this is the first marking made inside the helmet, but knowing when it was then transferred to its next unit (or new owner) is not possible without a Wehrpaß or knowing the ID of the owner. It's a lovely example and always nice to see something fresh to the market from an old collection.

An outstanding camo Anon. Congratulations! This example has a lot interesting features such as the decal shadows, the snow camo and later camo application. Even looks to have some green paint on the liner pins between the leather and shell. The alu liner band looks in good shape too, particularly if it’s a single ply example. Well done
I always like to leave my straps loose so as not to put too much strain on them and create a difference in colour over time as the patina under the strap changes compared to the rest of the helmet receiving more light, but personal choice of course.

An interesting color combination. Don't see that color green often.
Looks like the white wash was scrubbed off after winter ( looks like it is over the camo)
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

Thanks for the comments!
Good point with the chinstrap Andy, I already removed the chinstrap from the visor of the helmet. The leather is still flexible but a bit hard and the chinstrap stays in the form so it seems that it was over the visor for some time.
The whitewash was indeed over the camo and later scrubbed off to reveal the camo again.
