TIN HELMET CIVIL DEFENSE?

[easterneagle87]

CAN ANYONE GIVE A LITTLE MORE INFO ON THIS TIN HELMET. I THINK IT'S BEEN PAINTED FOR CIVIL DEFENSE. IS IT A WW1 HELMET CONVERTED? THE LINER IS THERE BUT IN ROUGH SHAPE.

 

YOUR INPUT IS APPRECIATED.

 

I'M NOT SELLING THESE JUST PASSING ALONG A "LOOK SEE" YOU YA'LL. HOWEVER THEY ARE FOR SALE AND IF INTERESTED I'LL FORWARD YOU WHAT HE HAS IT LISTED FOR.

Civil Defense indeed :thumbsup: , converted for Auxiliary Police during WWII. They would assist police departments with blackout restrictions, traffic control, and guard duties.
