Here’s a rare helmet for sale, in very good condition overall compared to most. These helmets were produced in England by the Vickers Company in the late 20’s for the Irish Defense Forces, and were used until replaced in 1940. The white overpaint was added to these examples for emergency services after that point, like 99% of the less than 10,000 made that survived. The white paint on this example is extremely impressive, with only minor scratching and some minor flaking of the paint on the visor and right side. What sets this example apart, is the original solder on the liner pins, which is never seen on other examples! Interior lining is very nice overall, being mostly intact. 3 of the 6 fingers (1 on each pad) has fallen victim to mice. Liner band correctly marked T. Chinstrap almost perfect as well. Shell has the correct Vickers stamp on the interior side of the skirt. The original color paint remains visible in the interior dome. An extremely nice and rare piece perfect for any collection! Please message with any questions you might have. PLEASE CHECK MY OTHER ITEMS!
