Here’s one you don’t see too often. I can’t remember the proper term so I just call it my plastic one. It does have an embossed stamp in the leather but I can’t make it out . Rob

Hi Rob,

Depaheg Patent made these. My example has the mark still legible in it.

Yes they're Vulkan Fibre material as you say.

Here's a link to my example which is Depot Issue Marked, and there are also 2-photos of this type of helmet being worn, shown in the thread.

Your helmet is an excellent example, congratulations!

Best Wishes,

Alan
 
Yes a very rare example of a Vulcan Fibre OR's haube with riveted visors. V-Fibre is an early form of plastic. I don't think I have even seen 6 of these in 40 years of collecting, excellent purchase!
