Major General Bil4338 Posted March 1, 2017 Major General Share Posted March 1, 2017 Here's my latest acquisition, as described above.it appears to have received several layers of paint over the years, and a more modern and simpler chinstrap than the double Y sprung types it originally had...these were prone to fraying and breaking with use and aren't commonly found. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davejb Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Thats a pretty rare helmet Bil, I,ve only seen one other at I think Bedford Arms fair, quite a few years ago, but it was described wrongly as a Finnish helmet.Yours is a nice example, congrats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
