Description
Early produced M35 army steel helmet in good condition. The helmet started as an apple green coated double decal helmet in 1938 but was overpainted with field green paint due regulations most likely in 1940 before the invasion of Western Europe. Therefore, the party decal has been covered in the dark green paint but a ghost still remains visible. The eagle decal on the left side was left open and shows nice aging and patina. It is a classic Big Foot example that matches the maker of this helmet. Inside the helmet a 1938 dated reinforced aluminum liner is installed, the leather remains soft and strong and is complete with its draw string. The split pins remain straight and unmessed with. The full length chin strap is present, dated 1938 and maker marked by Curt Vogel, Cottbüs. Shell marked by Q size 64, lot number 767.
