M35 Luftwaffe double decal 'Normandy' camouflage helmet SE64

A very nice M35 steel helmet that started it's life as a double decal example in glossy blue paint. Got camouflaged during the war, covering both decals, but there shadow is still visible under the paint. The camouflage pattern is a classic 'Normandy' three tone spectrum period applied by airbrush using vehicle paint. The colors remain bright and visible and paint shows normal combat damages.The inside remains perfect and untouched having a reinforced aluminum liner. The leather is a bit stiff but remains strong. The genuine draw string and chin strap are still present. The strap has a maker marked and dated 1938. The split pins remain straight and untouched. Has a ID-number in the rear skirt '1006' painted in yellow.Maker and size marked shell: SE64, lot number 3936 as far as i can see ( indicating production by Sächsische Emaillier und Stanzwerke A.G )Beautiful and so hard to find textbook three tone camouflage helmet!
