My friend had this in his garage for decades. It’s in very good condition. Not sure if it’s German or someone told me possibly Spanish.

Decent Original M35 made for Spanish troops. Most likely used for the Spanish Blue division. Shell is dent free. Outside paint is a dark grey/green. Not sure if original. Has aluminum outer liner band in helmet with original rivits. M35 are getting hard to find, especially this one. So this is a ET64 helmet. There is a production number on the rear of the visor, but cannot read it fully.

Condition is very good. Since it is a used item, it is in good condition overall, although there are some damages and stains. This is a WWII German M35 helmet, the same type as the Spanish Civil War Stahlhelm (helmet). The engraving is faint, but it is ET64. This is a very valuable M35 helmet. International Buyers – Please Note. Thank you for your understanding.

This is a genuine WW2 Spanish Helmet. The helmet is a collector’s item and perfect for anyone interested in militaria. The helmet’s design and construction reflect the Spanish German military’s attention to detail during WW2. The helmet is in okay shape and has a unique story to tell. It is a great addition to any collection and will be a prized possession for years to come. There is some rust and missing the liner.

This is a rare and unique German Bundeswehr M35-50 helmet. The helmet is a size 62 as indicated inside the back side. The liner inside is marked as a size 53-57. This helmet has a distinctive liner that is not attached to a ring at the rim but instead is connected to the inside of the helmet dome with prongs meeting at the inside peak under a padded main attachment, and lined with a tanned, 8-flap leather lining secured with a boot-string-like cord. While I was trying to figure this out, I noticed a name written several times inside. This particular name bothered me the whole time, worrying that I might be on the wrong track trying to solve this mystery. Eventually, it all started to make sense when I quickly discovered that Spanish volunteers had fought alongside Germany during WWII. The name written inside this helmet reads: Rafael Almanzar Martinezy. Not a German name, but now it all became clear. This helmet belonged to a Spanish volunteer, one of the wearers of the M35-50 helmet: the Bundesgrenzschutz (BGS / “Federal Border Guard”), which was the first national-level armed service established in West Germany after WWII. Established on 16 March 1951 as a subordinate agency of the Federal Ministry of the Interior, the BGS initially focused on protecting West German borders. During their early days, BGS units had military structures, training, and equipment. The law enforcement officers legally held military combatant status until 1994. A significant number of early BGS personnel joined the newly founded German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) in 1956, contributing significantly to West Germany’s rearmament. The BGS was renamed Bundespolizei on 1 July 2005. Therefore, this helmet is very rare and special as it belonged to a Spanish volunteer. One more thing to note about this helmet is that there is another marking on the leather liner. In larger marker it reads: 332 C. I wonder what this means? In any case, this helmet would be a valuable addition to any militaria collection looking to include a named Spanish Guard Volunteer in their ensemble. Please see all photos. I included a few of the border guard and how this type of helmet appeared within their ranks and uniforms. Contact me to ask any questions, provide any additional info or make me an offer!
