screened grommets and slotted side apron makes this helmet nearly unobtainable. The

the rare helmet collector and priced to sell. $2,500. More Photos |

combat use. It's the field made splinter cover that makes this ensemble. The cover was
probably made from Army zeltbahn shelter. The wear to the cover matches the wear to

Army (Heer) general's or Navy(?) officer's double decal "vulcanfiber" parade dress
helmet. I have to admit that I'm a bit stumped by the golden color of this decal. It
may very well be Kriegsmarine. Regardless, this is a very rare Third Reich helmet. The
helmet is double decal with both being 100%. The light green parade finish is about
100%. The screened vent air grommets are a nice rare to see. The only each side of
the helmet shows cracks that extend from the bottom of the skirt's edge up into
the decals for ½ inch. The interior features the Robert Lubstein label on a black
padded dome. The leather liner is also stamped with the Robert Lubstein name. There
are perforated initials punched near the Lubstein imprint - SB. Also there are a
series of numbers handwritten along the back of the liner. The initials DRP are
stamped along the inside skirt but judging from the finish and decals I sincerely
doubt if this stands for Deutches Reichs Post. This very rare helmet displays
well. $4250. More Photos |
087H4 -
Army (Heer) officer's double decal aluminum parade helmet. This excellent example
features a mint eagle and near mint national escutcheon. The early, smooth pea
green finish shows occasional wear to the finish revealing the aluminum sheel. The
chinstrap is the "quick-release variety showing minor age cracking but it is intact
and pliable. There are a couple of very minor indentations to the shell's crown. These
do not detract from the overall appearance or desirability of this rare piece. The
interior features the original liner with four (4) cork pads that separate the shell
from the liner. The helmet's size is stamped on the liner "58". These light weight
helmets were worn primarily by officers for parades. Rare! $4500. More Photos |

Army M35 single decal combat helmet. I believe this is a period "re-issue" as I cannot find
evident of a second decal. The grommets indicate a M35. The paint is a dark field gray
that began to be seen in 1940. The eagle shows heavy wear as does the paint finish. There
is a dent on the crown about 1 ½ inches long. The interior has a complete age darkened
liner. The shell is stamped SE62 with "1467" being the batch number. $799. More Photos |

Army M35 double decal helmet. This unquestionable helmet was there judging by the wear. The
shell features the darker field gray/green smooth finish. The Army eagle has wear to the
areas of the swastika and neck. The national shield has consistent wear but the wear to

the owner's initials penned on one of the tongues. The skirt is stamped with the batch
number and ET66. $1850 More Photos |

chicken wire. $1850. More Photos |
