World War Two Antique Vintage Retro Military Helmet – Zuckerman/Civilian Protective Helmet c.
A lovely World War Two Zuckerman/Civilian Protective Helmet, dated from c., still in good condition. The helmet is made of pressed steel and with its original inside liner made of leather and webbing, and string on the outside to fix the webbing into place. Still visible are the maker’s marks and the size indicator (M for medium). Many have two single holes opposite each other on the brim. These markings detail the amount of resistance the helmet offered to ballistic impact (this being the lowest, and therefore not for use as a frontline helmet). The helmet was available in a number of colours, this helmet being olive green in colour with slight surface rust due to its age. On the inside, there are two loops to attach a chin strap, and a couple of dents to the top. There is also a green paint splatter on its surface, adding to its history. I have seen these painted up for medieval battle reenactments too. Needs to go to a good home. Asking £50, or nearest offer. Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
