    Camo helmet in wear - Mimikry 1918!

    I have just seen this auction photo, and I thought some helmet collectors will like to see it, too:

    Humm

    The black camo lines look to me like they have been added to the picture and are not on the actual helmet.

      I don't think so. I think some lines were on the helmet.

      PS: I don't mean the line on the top.

        It's a colorized picture. In those days it was a common practice to touch up pictures because the originals were not always sharp enough. When you have a combunation of both, it can look like this picture.
        The lines are not exactly added, but they were meant to highlight the original lines...

          It has a strange 3D effect to it.

              Adler is correct, it's an old technique where someone just painted on top of a B&W picture to colorize it.

                I have seen a lot of colorized photos before. Most of them were large photos. This one is interesting because it is a small post card size.
