Gun Collectors Dream Auction 63 Day Two
Lot 1061:
German WWII Service Worn Wehrmacht M35 Double Decal Helmet with Liner- Model 1935 German WWII "double decal" helmet with a Wehrmacht Eagle decal on the left side, and a "National Colors" decal on the right. The use of the second decal was discontinued in 1940, and in 1943 it was ordered that helmets with the national colors have them removed, so finding a helmet with both still intact is a real treat! PLEASE NOTE; IT is up to the bidder to determine authenticity as we do not have a COA, and we are not War Helmet Experts; please let us know if you need additional information. There are no major dents or other issues, and the areas without paint show a lovely lightly brown oxidized patina. The interior of the helmet shows much more of the original paint, though there is some oxidation and flaking. The leather liner shows nicely with some minor wear; there is a stamp on the leather showing Kopfweite Gr. 60 and Stahlhaube Nr. 68 which indicates the Head width in this case is 60, and the other means steel hood shell number which is 68 in this case, then at the front of the leather liner shows Karl Heisler Berlin C2 DRGM, on the interior of the helmet is stamped 527 then under the ear strap stamped E T 6 8 (Eisenh?ttenwerk Thale im Harz) The chin strap is in good condition as well, super cool Helmet so get your bid on today!
