RAF Flying Helmet - Need Help

[R.R.]

Hi,

A friend offer me this RAF flying helmet with googles. I think it's a Type C helmet from 1943 pattern with Mk.VIII googles. I'm correct about the models?













Helmet and googles are not in the best shape, but both looks original ones and may be from WWII era. I don't see any markings at googles and helmet. There are a name writed in red inside both earcovers that seems to me is "ROCHESTER" and another faint writed in blue that I can't read.

Please, I need to have a notion about it's value in actual state before take my decision.





















Regards,

Ricardo

A RAF C-Type helmet with MKVIII Goggles.
The helmet is of the late type. Both the helmet and helmet could have been used late war but also post war. Value for this set? I gues between 150-200 Euros

I wouldn't buy an internally wired helmet without the electronics.
