That's a nice helmet, from what I can tell it was made by Auteroche and it's the second type that they made. The first type are rarer models. I don't have any by that maker.

It's the shape of the comb and the placement of the rivets on the visor. There were 8 manufacturers and they all made the Adrian helmets slightly different. There is a very good web site on helmets but it is in French but you can run it through Google and get a fairly good translation. It shows all the different shapes of the helmets and is very good for finding out the makers. He does most of the helmets from around the world very good reference site. .: World War Helmets - Casque Adrian modèle 15 :.
