I've had this cover for a few years now. I bought it for £5 back when I first started WW2 re-enacting. Because of the low price I thought it was likely just a mass produced repro and stuck it on a euro clone shell but since I started properly taking an interest in collecting M1 helmets a few months ago I recently took a look online to see if i could find a similar one somewhere and found a couple of long dead ebay listings and not much on any forums aside from a mention of something that sounded similar. It's professionally put together and the silk material is the same on the inside. It lacks the ripstop texture that a lot of parachute material pieces tend to have. Is anyone here familiar with these?
