Very early version of M38 helmet straps?

[FJCN]

Hi!

I got some pics from http://germanhelmetsinc.com/gallery.htm. Please see below. It is first time to see such a version of M38 helmet straps. Can anybody tell me if it is a version which really exsited in WWII?

Thanks!

Hello,
Nice Helmet! I think this was the one Steve Wolfe had at an SOS show a few years ago. Sincerely, DJB
