UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories Helmet Forum thoughs on this HEER HELMET

Hi, Been burned on a few helmets so Id like to get some opinions here first.

My concern is the 99% decal. Almost too good

What about the paint and liner??

thanks

This appears to be a re-issued M35. The paint appears to be almost blue-green, but it may just be my monitor. All things considered I think this may be a good one - however, it would be a good idea to give us the helmet size and lot number,& any visible markings on the liner band and leather. Good close up shots of the edge of the leather and a straight on (not angled) photo of the decal would also help.
I hope someone else will chime in.

agree with the rev. mike, i`d give it a tentative thumbs up based on these pics.

The decal is a Strach, if I spelled that correctly. So, for that reason there will always be a question tot his helmet. The decals were period produced but theoretically none should be applied. I have owned helmets with this decal that were period applied without question. So, I think it would take a “hands on” to decide when the decal was applied to the helmet. And if it was applied post war by an expert, it would be impossible to tell.
Best Wishes,
