    Refurbished Italian helmet?

    Forum members, I came across an Italian helmet at a local antique shop....It's quite identical to the one posted here in this link....It's chinstrap is not leather but some sort of web material....The only stamp I could find was an "AL 32" in the rear of the shell....I'm assuming these are refurbished WW2 helmets....What are the value of these?....Any thoughts appreciated as usual....Bodes

    m33 helmets were used with the Italian army until the early 90ies.
    They were also produced after ww2.
    The helmet shown is a typical post ww2 produced example in all parts.
    Whilst not much is know about the stamp in the helmet shell, the stamp "ALxx" can only be found on post ww2 produced examples.
