Lot 461:
WWII German Heer M42 ET64 Single-Decal Combat Helmet – Lot 1623
Description
Original WWII German M42 Stahlhelm manufactured by Eisenhüttenwerke Thale (ET) in shell size 64, with production lot number 1623 stamped to the interior rear skirt. Helmet retains a substantially intact Heer eagle decal and dark field-gray combat finish showing honest service wear, scratches, scattered oxidation and age patina. Classic M42 construction is evident in the simplified raw, outward-flared shell edge and stamped ventilation openings. Interior retains its period leather liner showing considerable age, dryness, cracking and losses. Chinstrap is absent. A solid, untouched-appearing example of a wartime German Heer M42 combat helmet.
