Hi all,

I'd like to get your opinion on this helmet. I did some research and I think it could be a M40 with a Pocher type I decal but I've virtually no experience with helmets so I don't know whether it's an original.
The helmet belongs to a friend of my father and I don't think he will sell it but at the moment he allows his grandson to use it as a toy (see scratches and brownish dirt)... So if it's an original I'll try to convince it to store it somewhere safe until he changes his mind about selling it :-)

Thanks for your input! Seems I'll have some reading to do if I ever want to start a helmet collection :-)
