The liner appears to be modern with spurious ink stamp, but would the helmet shell hidden under the silver paint 3R, or post war please?

H-D. I painted it gloss black and rigged up a more suitable chinstrap.

Thanks, I've started off a new thread re a FP "EREL" brass crested vulkan fiber helmet that I have, rather than keep this one open - it's done its job, ta.

Hi Seth,
Yes I own this black SS vulkanfibre helmet. It is only the second one I know of...the other being in the collection of Al Barrows. His is a slightly higher quality helmet (these were commercially produced private purchase items) and appears in Kelly Hicks' new "SS Steel" reference book.
As far as pricing goes, I really don't know what it would sell for today and I would rather not speculate for fear of being accused of driving up prices. The best thing to do would be to conatct a reputable dealer and ask how much he would sell one for.
