Received this last week for the museum. Still working out the history on it as it is a vet bring back. The info provided was sketchy and we are waiting on another family member to be in contact... Still, a nice field used example. Scott

Thanks Scott, this one shows just enough use and slight damage to have character. I too have seen many that were trashed, or on the opposite spectrum the felt un-issued variety. Scott

Very nice example.I have one that came out of a duffle bag.The guy who had them said he got two duffle bags full of the canvas helmets from the vet.The ones that were on the bottom suffered the most :(

Nice helmet. I have the canvas version and the pressed felt, both in nice condition. I have often wondered though, my canvas has light tan leather trimming whereas most like yours, have a darker Olive leather trim. Anyone have any thoughts?
