FJ helmet authentification

[HistoryFan86]

I'm currently looking at purchasing a FJ helmet and the seller is letting it go for a good price because he's unsure of the authenticity as he acquired it in an estate sale. Any help will be appreciated.

I was afraid of that. Thank y'all for your opinions and for saving me some money!

I suspect the seller knows it's crap, too.

If any seller says he is " unsure of its authenticity" it's pretty much always bad...

What are some things to look for to get a good judge of authenticity based off of photos? Also what are some good sites with reference material? Appreciate any and all input.

As well as searching on here, you could go onto the Virtual Grenadier website, put m38 in the search box, and you will see page after page of excellent, very well photographed examples to compare.
