Description:
This is a single decal helmet that has 75% plus of the original blue - gray flocked paint finish that has flaked to the underlying brown metal on the crown and along the rolled edge of the visor and neck flare. There is a bullet or shrapnel impact mark on the left side of the visor which has deformed and cracked a small portion of the edge and about 50% of the 2nd type Luftwaffe decal remains on the left side of the crown. The interior is maker marked "EF66" (Emaillierwerke AG / size 66 shell) and the size 59 zinc and leather suspensionis in very good condition with some scuffing and flaking along the bottom edge and the cinch cord is missing from the web. There is no chinstrap but this is a very nice and battle - worn example of a World War II Stahlhelm and would make a very attractive addition to a collection.
