M32 Vulkan fiber Helmet

[chrisutter]

I'm pleased to show this M32 Vulkan Fiber Helmet to the forum;
I know that this was introduced in a small number in the Reichswehr
as an experience (combat?) helmet and later taken into the Wehrmacht
for parade uses.
The 3R insignas, as well as the Feldgrau painting, are applied on a later point;
This seems timely logical;
I would appreciate other comments of this item produced by Robert Lubstein.

Hi,

looks like the eagle decal was added after the green paint was already coming off the helmet.

Best regards,

I'm sorry but the eagle is a fake . they could be a trace of another one under .

Generally a nice M32 helmet, though I do agree with Francis, the Army decal unfortunately is post-war. The finish, vulkanfiber shell and liner/strap assembly look very good.

The liner is the same as the ones in the helmets used by the Finnish army during WWII?
