How can I preserve these helmets?

[AmericanPhoenix]

Hello WAF collectors,

I currently have 2 old helmets that I would like to preserve. One of them is an SSH-40 made in 1956 from the metal plant in Stalingrad. The other is a Serbian/Yugoslavian helmet probably used in the Yugoslav civil wars. Unfortunately, this site won't let me post pictures. I was wondering how I could preserve the helmets more and hopefully to learn more about the helmets.

Thank you,
American

Hard to say without pictures, but assuming these helmets are in good shape with only minor signs of usage (like most post-war SSH-40's and Yugo helmets I've seen online), there's really not much to do in order to preserve them, other than keeping them in a stable environment: away from dust and direct sunlight and humidity between 40%-50%.
