Original WW2 German M40 helmet in a nice green hand-painted camouflage. Some areas of loss from use and general service wear, but overall retained to a high percentage. The original factory grey is still present to the inner dome and beneath the liner, and there also potentially appears to be a faint outline of a decal under the paint just showing though. Shell it ET64 marked and lot number appears to read 1071, but this the second digit is somewhat obscured by the overpaint. Leather liner and chinstrap are both original to this helmet and untouched. Liner is size marked’57’ and has the original chord drawstring. Of interest is the is an inscription stamped into part of the liner which appears to read “1005 SS” but the meaning behind this is unknown. The chinstrap is clearly dated 1941 and maker coded “bdr”. An excellent original combat helmet that displays superbly well! Any questions please feel free to get in touch.
