WW I German Steel Helmet
Created on February 27th 2008
Well preserved original Helmet with leather liner (one fixing rivet at rear missing) No Strap. Cushion bags inside liner still present - only one filled. Various pencil writings on inside of rim, in script, very faint - looks like the fine handwriting of a time gone by - on studying the era, many postcards from the front are written in pencil. There is also incrediably what appears to be a cartoon of a duck ! beside the name & address. Numbers and codes all stamped inside helmet, including “Si.66″ & ”Bi499″ Standard Rolled edge. Sniper protection lugs at front. Superb condition very little rust a worthy condition to any serious collection.
