    M33 with presumably Spanish Stencil - need advice

    Just got this m33 from France.

    Medium green overpaint on the outside.
    Inside the shell rim is painted in, to me, typical Spanish brown.
    Also strap seems Spanish to me.
    Note the replaced rivets.
    Note the serial number of the shell: F8! Seems a rare code to me.


    What is the stencil?
    Looks like a field applied GAF fregio fuori regolamento to me.
    But it must be Spanish after the strap and the color inside the shell.

    What's your opinion?

          It 'a helmet war in Spain. It is also confirmed by the code. I believe, however, 'that the exterior paint and the frieze are not of military origin. Hello.

              Spanish post civil war repainted and then repainted again with insignia done with a modern black magic marker by hand drawing.

              Probably a re-enacter or or novice collector playing around

                Former SCW or a bit later M.33, good in the liner. The chin-strap is Spanish.
                Repainted and approximative hand made stencil.PaoloM

                  Paolo, you think it's a stencil? Appears hand drawn to me with a modern marker not a brush either.

                    Hello,
                    I agree with Dannis S: it is evident that the frieze was made with a marker containing spirit, the same used to write on the packages. Look these points blacks ... classic sign left by the markers on smooth surfaces.

                      Dennis, you're right.I would say black marker, not stencil.PaoloM

                        So you believe that the green paint and the frieze are original? Hello.
