Cracking M42 helmet

Post by Peter Hoffmann »

This is a very nice M42 helmet. I have had it for some time, it's an original shell (hkp64 3583 = Sächsische Emaillier und Stanzwerke A.G, Lauter) with original field grey paint inside and a fairly subtle attempt at Normandy camo sprayed on - some age to this, may even be original paint.

The liner is a size 57, repro (but one of the best I have seen). It's a good tight fit inside the shell and has never been taken out so I don't know what the markings on the band are.

Original chin strap, no markings, traces of field grey paint on the buckle.

There's an SS decal to the right side and an SS name painted inside the skirt, although it looks like an attempt has been made to remove this (still readable though).

Finished off with a nice wire camo basket.

Will sell for £145 all in, posted within the UK (overseas postage at cost). Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions or you would like more pictures, or email me direct with offers at paul.hinckley@hotmail.com

Money back guarantee if not satisfied!

Cheers, Paul.
