Really cool. Was interested in what the liner would have looked like so did a search.

Looks like the only attachment is at the top and reminds me a bit of the WWI British/Canadian Brodie system of attachment.

Thise one was sold, after the loss of my wife... along with great parts of the collection, the house and some other belongings of us.
But got a other one, yesterday, here in France.
I am using the sellers pic, still recovering of the trip to fetch it....

They were produced in the UK, so they probably didn't look much further....

The helmet of helmets

The helmet of helmets

I like that definition!
It is indeed, in a way.
Also holding the middle, or should I say the link, of the modern times and the medieval periode I find facinating and collecting as well.

Here are my pic's
Seen here with the book that revealed me that particular helmet in the mid seventies...

Great addition.

Excellent Kris! I never knew these helmets even excisted. Only the French Adrian helmets, without the front visor, but with a piece of rubber there. Said to be for armoured cars or tanks..

Congratulations, Kris, on finding another one of these rare helmets!

Best Wishes,

Alan
