Ok, well I was just joking about the India thing, sorry, but there is a lot of issues I have with this helmet that look off kilter to me. And I'm sure other members will agree. If you take some better pictures with more angles and close ups we could give you a more detailed assessment. Is there any other markings or stamps inside the shell or on the visors? The rear visor looks like a "19 T" brand stamp. Don't think thats a Regiment but I could be wrong. Need to check Joe's data base.
Well first thing I noticed is the over all texture of the outside black lacquer, it looks like someone sanded and repainted, there is not a single craze or crack on the outside shell. The poor stitch work. Front visor looks like a newer replacement with new trim that is too long and doesn't have the proper angle cuts.You can also see the old impressions from where the ft. visor retainer pins used to be. That liner looks like new pigskin leather with its nylon cord. The wappen hole grommets seem too close together,and the two leather retainer pieces don't look right. Wappen looks Ok (would like to see the back though). All the split pin retainers are repros (too thin, too domed). Spine and spike seem ok. Would like to see the them close up. The spine is too long for that size shell, noticed it's wedged under the base plate, causing a bulge and the other end hangs off past the rear visor. The side post lugs seem high. The chin strap hardware shows age, but the leather is in question. (need to see the inside and the stitching) And the cockades seem too new , but again need close ups and the back views to be sure. Thats what I can see from the pics.
At best this is a restoration or parts helmet.
I only started this thread because I felt your auction description was lacking some info. I'm just being honest and not trying to offend.
So Best of luck with your Ebay sale!
