      That's great looking helmet. I'm about to buy a DD ET too.

      Darryl - would you expect to see a DD second pattern decal on anything other than ET? It seems all M35 DD second patterns are on ETs, any truth to this?

          Ty,
          Yes, I would expect to see the second pattern runes decal on one other helmet maker's product...in the factory-issued state of course.

          Marc,
          Here's the info I had on your helmet.

          -captured by Edward Martin SN 15055751, 376 Parachute Field Artillery, 82nd Airborne Regiment. He fought in the Rhineland in 1944/45.

          I was told that his widow had a photo-album of his showing him with this "trophy" in a period picture. However, I was never able to get this pic or even see a copy of it.

            Having the history on this stuff makes all the difference. Darryl, it must have been tough giving this one up.

            Is this one For Sale Marc?

                  Marc,
                  You're very welcome...glad to be able to offer you the info I had on it. It was a tough decision to let this helmet go but there was a black Allgemeine-SS helmet that was calling my name!

                  Cheers,

                    SS helmet worth?

                    Since this is a original SS helmet what would a collector expect to pay to own a nice condition original helmet.

                    I sure would like to know what it may cost me to buy one but with
                    so much crap floating I would have no idea!

                    I think every collection should have a nice example but original
                    is a must and I know these are not easy.

                    Thanks for any help!


                    I do know the kind Darryl likes is way out of my range!
                    but there must be some affordable real ones out there.


                    THANKS

                      A helmet like this would start at least $5000. I would expect to pay $5000 to $6000

                        DD

                        Ty , I think this will be a fair price for a honest DD SS helmet .

                          Helmet value

                          Thanks for the info!

                          You just have to know what real costs so you can educate yourself.
