Hi all: here is a nice, ORIGINAL Quist (maker) size 64 German M40 combat helmet. Post war paint has been stripped off exposing the remnants of the original dark paint. Surface patina to other areas.
Oil has been added to prevent further patina, which gives parts of the helmet a copper tone. The liner is later-war issue, given it's rather'patch-work' construction. SOLDIER'S NAME hand-painted in the rear of the skirt'Ott' (one can also see the'Q' for Quist and some of the size and production numbers). The item "WW2 GERMAN'QUIST' M-40 HELMET. NAMED" is in sale since Monday, November 13, 2017.
This item is in the category "Collectibles\Militaria\WW II (1939-45)\Original Period Items\Germany\Hats & Helmets". The seller is "coqdude" and is located in Fort Nelson. This item can be shipped worldwide.
