Auction Description: Offered here is a WWII-era German M35/M40 style steel combat helmet finished in field-gray/olive paint, showing honest age, surface wear, scuffs, paint loss, and oxidation consistent with use and storage. The helmet retains its leather liner, drawstring, and chinstrap with buckle, with the liner visibly ink-stamped “58.” Both exterior decals are present, including the national shield and eagle decal, each showing wear and losses from age. The shell displays vent holes, rolled rim, and period-style construction details, while the interior shows expected wear to the leather and metal surfaces. This is an attractive military collectible with strong display presence, offered as found and as shown in the photos. Approx. dimensions (in): 6.25 x 11 x 9.
