Nice sample original GSW? helmet.
See my thread for my helmet.
I question the originality of the painted W.
You're looking at 80 CDN.

What you have is a civil defence Wardens helmet, the W indicates that.
The shell was made by general Steel Wares. It is a milder grade of steel than the combat helmets. The DP&H stands for the Department of Pensions and Health, the only helmets they purchased were the milder grade ones for Civil Defence.
I also don't like the W on this one, is looks off centre and crooked(might be the camera angle). It doesn't look like something a Civil Defence Warden would have worn.
As for value, I would be put it around $60-$70, the combat helmets go for more.

I agree with the above .The W looks to be original perhaps the painter was an old fellow . Rob
