GERMAN WWII POLICE DOUBLE DECAL M42 COMBAT HELMET.

A good size shell marked ‘HKP 64’ with batch number ‘3373’ to the inner rear skirt. The exterior retains virtually all of its original paint finish with one area just to the rear of the dome having rust bleed through paint. Both police decals are good and clear, slight chipping to the national swastika decal and minor knocks to the police decal. The liner retaining rivet heads have all their paint finish. To the interior the mid to late war pig skin type liner in excellent condition generally but with one tongue completely missing right up to the inner felt edge of the helmet, how this has occurred is unknown, the rest of the helmet liner is excellent. Clearly stamped ‘57’ with its original chinstrap, which is maker marked and dated ‘1941’.
