Description

Fantastic Waffen-SS M40 helmet issued with both decals applied after a sand paint finish was painted over the original factory field grey paint.  There are a few paint losses and minor marks of rust coming through, but the outer finish is really shows good field wear. The tunic decal seems to have been left out.

The Swaztika decal is about 95% present where the SS Runes decal is closer to 65% present.

The paint  on the inside is fresh showing the original field grey color. The lining shows  minor signs of wear and and is quite supple. It is stamped size "56" stamped and still holds the original cord. The inside of the liner shows a 57 stamp along with an RBN number.

Marked  "Q64" marker and size marked to the reverse of the shell.
 

Soft and servicable chin strap without markings.
