Hello.

Three helmets.

3 Alpini Regiment, Cavalry Regiment school and Decima Mas division of the Italian Navy .

thank you

[Dennis S]

All fakes, artificial aging, paint , stencils etc, etc

One of the chin straps is postwar olive colored also with a spurious crown added

The Decima Mas is a surplus Navy helmet found in an arsenal in Italy. All were Royal Navy helmets with the crowns removed over the anchor and a ring added . You can see the storage ring on the top from being stacked. There were over 100 of them all the same.

These helmets are good.

I greased and cleaned inside.

Here the data sheet.

All 3 are repainted, new leather straps added, fake stencils, fantasy ink stamp, badly aged, etc.
Sorry but they are all bad.

They look like the repros sold by a chap on ebay.it working with at least 3 different names.

Here are 2 examples:

Original or not?

Thank you

The Xmas helmet is an early post ww2 Marina Militare helmet, with fake camo and stencils added.
Shell, liner and straps are ww2 era production.
But paint and assembly are post ww2.
