elh1311 Posted July 27, 2022 Share #3 Posted July 27, 2022 Hmmmm...front seam so WWII produced. Has 1980's chinstraps and a Vietnam-era P64 liner. The paint looks like something a bike did or some kid did. It's not military as far as I can tell. The laundry tag and with name and service number painted on the inside? Now that's interesting!

Luxview Posted July 30, 2022 Share #5 Posted July 30, 2022 This helmet is currently for sale on German Ebay (https://www.ebay.de/itm/295110138451). Seller asks for a minimum of $350, which seems to me far beyond a realistic estimate. Item description says "US helmet from WW2 period, later used by nuclear forces".

elh1311 Posted July 31, 2022 Share #6 Posted July 31, 2022 $350 seems to be a bit much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning Hazard Posted July 31, 2022 Share #7 Posted July 31, 2022 To me it almost looks like a soap-box derby helmet. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
