EF66 M42 no decal helmet in excellent condition. This is a unissued late war helmet with factory installed liner. The helmet retains up to 99% of its factory paint with minor storage scuffs. The helmet is a typical late war example with very rough tool marks. The helmets markings are hard to read but the shape of the shell are typical for the maker EF indicating production by Emaillierwerke Fulda in the shell size 66. A very nice late war example in a good large size that would be hard to upgrade.

German helmet liner marked RBNR 0/0251/0111 1944 66 n. A. 58 in good condition with original string.

Rare  M35 Luftwaffe double decal wire camouflage helmet marked ET64 indicating production by Eisenhuttenwerke Thale. This is a textbook pre war M35 double decal helmet with original factory installed liner and broken chocolate brown chinstrap. The helmet retains its original decals and factory finish up to 80%. Externally the helmet was lightly camouflaged with several neatly applied green spots all over the helmet. The helmet has a period applied metal wire around the helmet for the application of vegetation. There is a good amount of interaction of the shell with the wire which was applied to the helmet before the war’s end. The helmets shell is slightly deformed at the front left rivet which can be seen observing the shape of the shell. This is probably due to artillery explosion shockwaves because there is no damage to the shell or its paint indicating a direct hit or drop. The helmet is named Gefreiter Schwenk in the skirt of the shell. The helmet is a US veteran bring back and was stored in a footlocker until approximately 10 years ago when it was sold on the MAX show. It has been in a single collection since and now the first time on the open market. Hard to upgrade and for sure original wire camouflage helmet in excellent condition!

Rare case for the Luftwaffe issue “ultrasin” Splitterschutzbrille. The case is often missing and finding a spare is extremely difficult!

Battle damaged Q64 M40 no decal helmet in as found condition. Textbook late war no decal M40 helmet made by Quist in the shell size 64. The Quist marking is hard to read because of the thick paint used inside the helmet which is typical for this variant. The helmet retains its original factory installed and blood soaked liner indicating a battle damage. The helmet is in good condition with most of the original finish remaining. Hard to upgrade piece that tells a tale.

Textbook, late war M38 paratrooper or Fallschirmjäger helmet marked CKL68 indicating production by Eisenhuttenwerke Thale. The helmet is a typical late war example with non vented aluminium bolts. The helmet retains its rare late war slide buckle chinstrap without press studs. The helmet retains its original, blood stained, size 57 liner. The liner does not have its crown which I presume was removed during or after the war. The helmet is a nice original example in good used condition!

Very nice original Luftwaffe summer flight helmet. The helmet is in very good, lightly worn condition and retains all cables, snaps, buckles and communications equipment but is lacking the plug! The leather headphone covers are made of nice brown leather that would nicely compliment any mannequin.

ET66 M40 Heer Ex whitewash three-tone camouflage helmet in good condition. The helmet is a interesting example which was repainted multiple times. Starting its life as a standard single decal Heer helmet it was subsequently repainted in a winter whitewash which was later overpainted in a three-tone spray painted camouflage pattern. The helmet was at some point coated with a clear lacquer. The helmet is a nice example with a large portion of its wartime three-tone camouflage pattern showing. The helmet retains its factory installed liner. A nice example !

Typical Luftwaffe flight helmet without electrical components.

Textbook M35 helmet with period field applied Rautarn camouflage paint. The helmet is a typical Heer example with its Heer decal peaking through the camouflage paint. The helmet retains its original factory applied and in my opinion blood soaked liner.

Textbook German helmet chinstrap in good, close to mint condition, most likely unissued. The chinstrap is nicely marked ftb 44 which is a rather common maker for chinstraps but is still an unknown maker. Beautiful close to mint late war example which is hard to find as a spare!
