Jap Helmet Liner?

[RON INGRAM]

I Have A Decent Helmet And Has The Star On The Front,but It Has A Complete Cotten Liner,did They Use These In A Combat Helmet? Always Willing To Learn.thanks Ron

Can you post a picture? There is a canvas liner that looks like the standard leather liner for some combat helmets....but I'd suspect it's just a typical civil defense helmet liner. Is the helmet shape the typical Type 90?

THANKS FOR INFO. WERE THESE USED IN WW2 AND ANY VALUE?IT'S NOT FOR SALE ,JUST INTERESTED.

Yes, they were used by civil defense during the war and yours is named to someone called Kino****a.
They are not valued very highly though and 75.00 or so would be appropriate for this piece as it is missing its chin straps.
