KIA EF64 M35 Heer helmet in three-tone camouflage from Zeist, the Netherlands

Stunning M35 Heer helmet in three-tone camouflage from Zeist, the Netherlands. The shell is marked EF64 indicating production by Emaillierwerke Fulda. The helmet was found by me in May 2024 out of the woodwork in the Netherlands. The helmet was removed from a killed German soldier on the 8th of May 1945 in the Dutch city of Zeist. Originally it was together with a Belgian mauser rifle and bayonet which sadly have been lost in time. The helmets liner is named “Lenz” in the leather and the dome of the shell shows remnants of a paper name tag. The helmet is a textbook M35 heer example which was spray painted in three-tone camouflage to be finished off in a whitewash in the last winter of the war. The remants of the whitewas are obvious to the shell. The helmet retains its original camouflage paint up to 90% and is easily to be classed excellent. The helmets liner is shrunk and blood stained which corresponds with the helmets provenance. This is a top shelf camouflage helmet in untouched condition!
