This helmet has a deep green painted finish with an SS decal on the right side and a party symbol decal on the left. Despite the wear to the decals and the painted finish, we feel that the decals and finish may possibly be post WWII enhancements. Original leather chinstrap and 8-tongue brown leather liner. The inside rear of the helmet is stamped "3055" and the inside left is stamped "__.66". The rear inside of the helmet also has the white painted letters "X.V.P.". CONDITION: helmet’s current finish is approx. 50%. The SS decal is about 65%. Party decal is about 75%. Chinstrap & liner are solid, but show expected wear. PROVENANCE: From the Lifelong Collection of Glen E. Mattox. (02-18255/BF). $500-1,000.
