Q62 M35 Heer double decal helmet in tan camouflage 34. Infanterie Division

Stunning, combat used M35 Heer double decal helmet in tan camouflage paint. The helmet started its life as a typical double decal Heer example, later repainted in a field grey layer of textured paint. Later spray painted in a tan colour that can be attributed to the Afrika Korps and troops serving in the Meditteranian. The helmet was found in the village of Isola, in the south of France in 2006. The helmet was found in an area which was heavily fought over by the 34. Infanterie Division. The helmet retains its factory installed liner and original chinstrap. One of the chinstrap bales has been damaged and was repaired with a piece of field phone wire. Nice characteristic camouflage helmet in good condition that would be hard to upgrade and comes with an interesting provenance!
