    M38 Fallschirmjäger Helmet - ET68

    Thought I would post my recent purchase - some my have seen it already over on GHW.

    ET68 with #Lot 1922. Lovely combat piece fitted with a Biedermann Czarnikow of Berlin liner system

    Fastener Stud is the Floral Filigree pattern - made from Brass looking at the verdigris oxidation.

          Lovely example, with an uncommon liner. Three different names is also uncommon. Either all the owners were unlucky, or it was used at a jump school.

                    Really nice helmet, good clear photos too
                    i have an ET68 with a lot 1922 helmet , but Prym snaps and the usual Heisler stamped liner, I think there are quite a few of that lot number around, I do suspect some lots were far more numerous than others ( have seen quite a few of that particular lot on these pages too)

                        This helmet is so good. The Floral Filigree pattern on the fastener stud adds a unique touch to its historical charm. poeltl unlimited
