Item #69435 : Original period manufacture. A sound example of the WWII German Stahlhelm, M1935 style shell, maker and size stamped SE66, lot number 080, original decal as shown. Intact original liner, none of the fingers have been pulled through, the adjusting string is present but tattered. Fragile, partial leather chinstrap but missing the adjusting buckle. Three original liner rivets with slot washers, two of them have considerable verdigris build up on the prong, indicating they have been in place for a long time.
