    M42 helmet collection

    Hi,

    About 1 year ago I aquired my first ND M-42 helmet. I really love these "plane Jane" helmets, especially in very good condition with matt rough paint finish. You really see the quality degrading the higher the batch numbers go.

    Hope you enjoy!





    From top left to bottom right:

    4. M42 helmet batch nr 4248 CKL 64
    9. M42 helmet batch nr 5548 Hkp 66
    2. M42 helmet batch nr D355 NS 62 (liner has been treated with oil at some point, drawstring not original)
    3. M42 helmet batch nr 4462 CKL 66
    5. M42 helmet batch nr 5357 Hkp 66
    1. M42 helmet Kriegsmarine batch nr 31879 EF 66
    8. M42 helmet, no visible maker
    7. M42 helmet batch nr. D298 NS 64
    6. M42 helmet batch nr 4573, no visible maker

            Excellent specialized collection! And some of the more reasonably priced helmets too.

            M42's are my least favourite but when they're grouped together like this I see the appeal.

                      splendid, I like this ones much more then the mint M35 ones with dubbel decals.
                      What doesn't mean I don't like the DD's off course.

                      I have a similar m42 ND, HKP62.

                            I realy like M42, truly combat helmet allaround, simple and beatiful war's minimalism art.

                            minty and combaty

                              Nice collection!
                              Question: KM has M42 helmets? I read that the KM received nothing for this model of helmet. Thx for reply
