Period pictures of an M18 ear cutout?

[Adler]

As we all are interested in documenting our helmets, I think it would be interesting to see one or more period pictures of an M18 ear cutout helmet. I've seen several of cutouts used after WW1, but never seen one in use before november 11 of 1918. Do they even exist?
I sure hope you guys can help me out with this... Thanks in advance!

Karel ,
In the book “Helmets of the first world war”, on page 140, there’s a picture of a group of five soldiers wearing cutout helmets.
Named ; western front 1918.
However, whether this is really 1918 is not certain to me; the soldiers are all wearing Y Riemen,
not so common in WW I.
I’m not posting the picture due to copyright laws ,but the cover is allowed
