Luftwaffe M38 paratrooper helmet

Description
A very special M38 Fallschirmjäger helmet! This helmet was found about 15 years ago in Trento (Italy). Nearly 20 paratrooper helmets were found in a house hiding underneath the basement stairs. Some helmets even had camo covers attached. A well unknon story amoungst paratrooper collectors! All helmets are hiding in this world top collections today!
 
Don't miss this extremely rare opportunity to complete your collection with an untouched helmet like this!
 
M38 helmet with original attached liner and chin strap. Original "sand" yellow camo color added! Worn off and (most probably) partially removed by the Paratrooper when they went up fighting more North! The shell comes with nearly full original grey factory paint. 
Aluminum rivets. Shell lot numbered and "68" size stamed. The maker is hard to read.
Leather liner still soft. Signs of wear. "F.W.MÜLLER" maker marked. "Kopfweite Gr. 56" size stamped. 
2nd pattern leather chin straps with serious signs of wear. Light rust to the button. One crack to the top layer. The backing however holds the strap absolutely fine.
 
A great helmet with a lot of character! Worn condition.
