Many people list these helmets as WW2, but even though they are identical, that’s not true. This is a post-war helmet. The condition is very good. This helmet is more accurate than the wartime ones. It has smoother sides and is made of high-quality steel. Much later, somewhere around the 60s, the Germans began to make helmets and paint them white.

26618, as used by many German pilots and flight crew! During WW1, most pilots quickly realized the need for protective headgear due to the cold weather effects while in an open cockpit. As no headgear was readily available, pilots were forced to utilize commercially produced leather motorcycle and automobile helmets. During WW2, the German military produced approx. 10 variations of flight helmets for various operational conditions, as well as with or without radio communication equipment. This specific helmet was designed with radio equipment for fighter and bomber pilots. It was similar to the earlier model used in the early months of the Battle of Britain (LWpW100), however with updated features. Made of leather and fleece, this helmet is in SUPERB used condition. There are no rips or tears, and the leather is still very soft and supple! All snaps, tabs, and buckles work correctly, and retain their original paint. All the electrics are 100% intact (headphones, throat mic), as well as the main radio plug and wiring. All straps are fully adjustable. Data label is complete, however the size is difficult to read (appears to be around a 55). The cellophane covers for the earphones are also still present! A SUPERB example, perfect for any collection or display.
