HE-52 M16 Austrian transitional Helmet 
Here's a transitional helmet that's seen better days. It has been fit with a new M31 liner and reissued as a single decal. The decal has been completely scratched out. In can see no indication of size on the liner or the shell. The liner is in rough shape but all the tongues are there. They will break off if you mess with them as they are a bit stiff. The drawstring is missing. The interior of the shell has some apple green paint but overall there's lots of oxidation. VG

HE-43 M42 SD Luft Helmet 
Nice combat example with better than 90% +of the rough textured dark blue paint intact. The detailing to the 2nd pattern decal is excellent being about 95% intact. The size 59 liner with the drawstring is intact with some chafing but overall very good and supple, one of the tongues is torn away. The side of the interior of the shell is stamped "NS66" (indicating manufacturer Vereinigte Deutsche Nickelwerke, Schwerte) and "2258" as well the center is dome stamped. The chin strap has been replaced and the original is included along with the 2 wee aluminum rivets. The short strap portion has broke, however the long strap is still intact. Exc++

HE-34 M40 SD Army Helmet 
Fresh in from a NJ Veteran family. This one is painted in the rough texture slate grey paint finish. The exterior is in good shape being free of dents with scuff and wear. This one was there. I would say 98%+ of the finish is intact. The decal does show age and scratches but I would say is 90% intact. The interior has a Q64 stamp and well as what looks like 'IN34S", sorry it's not clear.. The original liner is stamped size 56. The liner is shows wear and some cracks and age. the draw string is missing. The chin strap is broke, it is marked "..ORN ZEY 1943" very hard to make out. An honest very heavy combat helmet.  Exc+

HE-35 M40 SD Luft Camo Helmet 
Purchased put of an old Canadian collection. This one appears to be field painted. Really looks great too! The exterior has a hit just above the decal, not bad but there. The decal remains 70% intact with good details. This one was there. I would say 95%+ of the camo finish is intact. The interior has a Q62 stamp and well as a hard to make out stamp under the field marked "15" to the interior. The interior of the helmet is Luftwaffe grey. The original liner I have searched for a size stamp but to no avail. The liner is shows wear and some cracks and age. the draw string is missing. It appears to have been oiled at some point and the result is it has darkened somewhat. The original chin strap is intact. I see no marking on it. An honest very heavy combat helmet.  Exc+

HE-53 M16 DD SS Helmet 
Here's a great helmet that is a scary one to buy, even for the most experienced collector. It's a Austrian M16 size 66 that has been converted for the Algemeine SS for use in the 30"s. It makes use of the CA poacher runic and party shields. The interior is a bit rough and sports someone's initials. It is well marked.  Ok just so you guys feel completely comfortable with this it's been I've sent it to Kelly Hicks who has given it a thumbs up and his certification is included!!  Exc++

Vi-7 Early Luftwaffe Officers Summer Visor 
A striking visor this is a private purchase, Officer’s white top visor cap consists of a removable, brushed, white, cotton/rayon blend top with white piping to the crown. The removable top fits securely to the formed body and of course is absolutely original to the cap. The centerband is a black, horizontally ribbed, mohair with silver/aluminum piping to both the top and bottom edges. The internal cap crown stiffening has been removed but a vertical stiffener to the front is still there, this was the shape that was very popular at the time. The center of the cap has an early short winged, hand embroidered, bullion eagle on a white wool base. The eagle is attached with 3 snaps to allow for removal at time of washing. To the center is a hand embroidered winged billion oak-leaf wreath that does have some minor age in the form of oxidizing/powdering. The cap has a bullion  chin-cord with awesome patina secured with two metal buttons. The black Vulkanfiber visor has a simulated leather lip to the forward edge. The interior of the cap is lined. The crown has an Erel celluloid sweat diamond. The interior of the cap also has a leather sweatband with ventilation perforations and an underlying orange foam rubber padding to the front forehead section. The orange material is somewhat lost to time but remnants remain. There are some wee 1 or 2 mm holes to the sweat band on the sides and the back has a small bow tie. This cap is in nice shape and displays well. There are no holes are damage to the exterior and just some minor soil. Exc++

HE-42 Municipal Police Motorcycle Crash Helmet 
Here's a nice example of a hard to find helmet. Constructed of "fiber-helm" with a thick rubber buffer and a leather visor. The body of the helmet is in good shape with some crazing and chipping that has somewhat affected to heavy black lacquer finish to the exterior. There is a bit of black paint overspray on the liner so my guess is that this one was period reissued. The Police eagle to the front is in perfect condition. The sides have the std screened air vents. the reverse neck panel also has 4 ventilation grommets. The original liner is well marked Erel in their familiar silver diamond marked and ink stamped size 56. This helmet is complete with original chin strap.
