Let the 2005 Helmet Collecting Year Begin

[Calvin Hall]

New one for me...bought it about 7 exits down I-40 from the inlaws house.

At first glane I had hoped for a DD KM. Alas, only a toned Heer adler.

SE64, 1939 dated alum reinforced liner band.

A keeper, yes. But where to put it.

Calvin -

That's a beautiful helmet! This thread should be linked to the earlier one about apple greens. Your new helmet is very similar in color to the interior of one of mine - a double decal M35 with textured feldgrau overpaint on the exterior and apple green on the interior (1st pic below). However, I have another early war double decal M35 that is more of "pea-soup" green (2nd pic). Has anybody else observed this difference in early war shades of green?

A keeper, yes. But where to put it.

Wonderfull lid, Calvin, thanks for sharing it.
