M36 Model
German Paratrooper Helmet : Is based on a very rare
M36 model shell, but has been modified using M38 liner and
of course early pattern spanner bolts. What makes this helmet
even more impressive is that it is very aged and severely
worn internally.
Notice that the helmet is painted original apple
green, and there is lots of heavy rusting coming through from
the shell. The rust is dark in colour not orange as in so
many reproductions!
The inner lining is very worn and aged reflecting being left
on the battlefield for many years. The lining rubber is black/grey
to reflect a typical M38 lining .Notice the rusting to the
whole helmet rim and remaining strap buckles. Even the zinc
eyelets are still present on the spanner bolts! A Superb German
Paratrooper helmet! There are also faint size and batch markings
as appropriate!
The stitching is genuine german helmet thread worn appropriately
and it is only a few stitches keeping the remaining liner
in place.
This helmet would make a superb item in your early Luftwaffe
Paratrooper collection - you are very unlikely to own a genuine
one unless you have £20,000+ to spare and find one of
the very few in existence!
