I realize these are somewhat rare. Appears to be correct in every way. The only thing that I can't determine is if the Heer decal is correct. It seems to have a larger head and I haven't found another example of this type helmet to compare decal to.

eek.. its one ive never seen and I have seen some of these that use another
type of odd ball decal. Maybe a good question for Don L. I never say never I have never seen this decal before anywhere...

So... Is the Heer decal a repro or possibly a period "Mom & Pops" shop decal?Comment

Actually, looking at the "decals" more closely.... The shield has been hand painted. The Heer "decal" black border also appears to be hand painted. The silver eagle quite possibly may be hand painted also but has some silver flecking as decals do....Comment

second helmet has a Gustav Pinger eagle decal and round bottom
aftermarket type.
Post war applied I'm sure.Comment

What source do you have for such details - export to Chile?
