Helmet is the Model 1940 with rolled edge and molded air vents.
Helmet is painted a dark gray color. The left side has the Luftwaffe decal of which 98% remains with the swastika missing. The right side has the national shield decal with only 5% to 10% of the decal remaining.
The exterior paint is in good condition with only the usual minor wear marks. All three liner rivets are present. The rolled edge is in good condition and free of dents.
The interior of the helmet has paint that matches the exterior in color. The leather liner exhibits some staining from sweat and wear from use. The crown has eight tongues drawn together by the original drawstring. Four of the tongues have black leather reinforcing behind them. There is no marking in the crown. Chinstrap is worn but complete.
The left side of the shell is marked on the inside “Q64” which means the helmet was manufactured by the Quist factory of Germany and is a size 64 centimeters. The Quist factory made size 64 Model 1940 helmet shells into late 1944. The back skirt of the helmet bears lot number “100.” [ad] [ph:L]
