Ed,

I think that you're right on the ID, most likely a factory services helmet (fire, security, etc). I have several of these, they range from just a stenciled ID in the liner, to decals (such as yours), to factory logos stamped into the metal shell. Unfortunately most of the ones that I have (and have seen), I cannot ID today as to what the company did, or in the case of the more creative company logo's, even what the actual company name was.

These factory helmets are rather heavily faked today (in as far as marketing phoney civil helmets goes) but yours looks 120% right to me. Great helmet,

Don
