FREE: WWII Helmet

The listing, WWII Helmet has ended.

A part of the "Greatest Generation" : Tom Brokaw reference. I found this helmet at a garage sale and knew it needed to go to a wonderful home! On the inside lip of the lid are the machine engraved numbers: F & L 890 1939. Also inside are the hand scratched initials: BtH. I didn't even see them at first: I only noticed the markings when I was trying to adjust the light to take these pictures. I wasn't sure how to tell anyone size (not that I suspect you will wear it) but the helmet measures 12.5" x 11.5". The inside leather pieces appear to be in great condition, the strap is still intact, and I don't see any tears. It is, of course, a war helmet so it clearly has vintage wear, especially on the outside.
