Thanks Ian for sharing,
nice helmet with a great and detailed description, very useful information on heat stamp; I own a McCord "Kelly" helmet with 19A stamp.

If it's any consolation Jake I'm literally skint now but it's 2 more helmets off my bucket list. Got my eye on a late WW2 M1C which was probably used post war but don't know what the asking price is yet from the seller. Please put the coat back on the hook

Oh my, wow that is another superb set Ian, really both sets are first class, please include me within your will.
It is nice that you and Jake both have quality examples on our shores and share them on this fantastic website.
Steve.

I didn't read the thread properly,thought the set was originally mated,those green inner painted St Clair's are awesome Bud.always wanted a prefix McCord with either the number 1 or 3 after the letter,awesome shell purchase.

With already owning a Hawley liner with an early heat stamped McCord it made sense to pair it with this St. Clair liner
