Description

A very early M35 double decal helmet issued with two decals pre war. The helmet shows only slight signs of wear and still comes with nearly 100% of the original "apple-green" factory paint. The eagle decal is nearly 100% as well. The national decal was period time removed by the soldier after 1940 and double decal helmets were stopped being issued to soldiers officially.

There is a correct "1938" (?) dome stamp to the inside. The liner was named once. The name was removed. It is still very soft and comes with a "58" size marking. The original cord is in place. The liner is original to the shell and the prongs of the rivets were never opened. 

The chin straps could be added later. It looks more worn than the helmet. Again, it is still soft and absolutely original. 

A fantastic helmet!
