I was fortunate to pick up an M-1915 Jager zu Pherd helmet from the wife of a friend who passed away a couple of years ago. Nothing special; however it is my first and I figured I would post it. Many thanks to the forum member who posted the M-1915 JzP maker comparisons a few months back.
I have also posted pictures of a new Bavarian ersatz tin helmet that I purchased from the same source. The only markings I have been able to find is the number 58 size stamp-painted on the rear neck guard and a number 8 pressed/stamped into the metal in the top of the crown. Standard brass wappen with two loops on the back held by leather wedges.
Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to post so many great images on this site. It really has been the highlight of each day to log on and read your insights and view your photos. Thanks and Semper Fi. Bryan.
