Original era manufacture. This is an untouched example, picked up locally by a friend of ours. Standard M1942 pattern helmet, with it's original liner & drawstring, with most of the original chinstrap remaining. The lot number appears to be 2018, but I cannot make out the maker or size number. On the right side is an original decal with a decidedly gold hue to the finish, likely a toned army decal. The exterior of the helmet shows scattered areas of corrosion finish, but I would say that about 80% of the original paint remains. The liner is intact, no broken fingers, and the surface is not crumbling away. Most of the long portion of the chinstrap is intact, missing the tip, the securing buckle is missing from the short side.
