IMPERIAL GERMAN TRENCH HELMET AND BROW PLATE.

An excellent set M.17 trench helmet being of the popular G manufacturer size 62 retaining virtually all of its original apple green finish. The interior metal band holding its service worn three padded light cream liner to which one only of the inner horse hair pads remain, all of the three pads are securely affixed to the steel band, all of the tongues to the pads are complete. The drawstring is complete and has torn through the tip of one of the tongues. The buckle only remains of its original chinstrap. Attached to the helmet is a near matching colour size II in roman numeral marked brow plate with a period leather strap. To the exterior virtually all of its apple green finish remains. To the interior the colour is thin. We are not suggesting that the attachment strap is the original to the helmet, but it has been in place for many years and could possibly be a period replacement.
