This is a great one, Zebedeus. These are fragile and rarely seen in such a good condition.Bruno you are right about the felt lining. Here is my "seemingly complete example".View attachment 19981View attachment 19982

YES !!! I believe this was the one on Ebay a couple of years ago...the helmet was photographed on a red background and it had a brass eagle!!
Hello is this for sale?I noticed your helmet because I have a similar wreck, which is the same model, and in fact complementary of yours: the lobstertail is gone, but the visor (which is riveted to the shell) is still present. The liner is also there, albeit battered, and, more remarkable, the felt lining between leather and metal is also present (this is seldom seen, even in seemingly complete examples).
