WW2 British 'Morris Motors Fire Brigade' Helmet 1941

From a private British helmet collection recently purchased many of which will be offered on the collectors market for the first time in the forthcoming updates. A British Home Front Zuckerman helmet with insignia to front for Morris Motors Fire Brigade. Morris Motors were a Cowley, Oxfordshire based factory which manufactured much large military equipment such as Tiger Moths, Tanks, Scout Cars , DUKWs & gun barrels. The No.1 Metal & Produce Recovery Depot run by the Civilian Repair Organisation was also based there handlling crashed or damaged aircraft as well as enemy airplane wreckage for the war effort. Finished in the standard civilian grey paint it has the red motif painted to front & displays overall quite heavy wear. Interior has intact 1941 dated liner with 1941 date to underside of shell. Interesting piece from a very old Home Front helmet collection.
