Help Identify Helmet

I picked this up in a gun shop a few years ago. I know it is fire police or some civic function. Is anyone on the forum familiar with it and the period it dates to? It is a fiber helm but has no maker marks. It also has liner band ventilation holes all around the perimeter, so we assume post wwi. It is missing the wappen small center emblem. I can only find one resource photo online with similar features, unfortunately the source is a photo sales site only with no narrative. The emblem on it’s wappen is similar to the asiatic expeditionary forces eagle, with the addition of a trumpet horn that the eagle clutches onto. Thanks!

Ron
