The helmet has been painted, there are no visible traces of eagle emblems on the side of the helmet. I am told the piece came from Italy. Note the rivets on the helmet.

Two marks are found on the inner side of the helmet. The size of the helmet is 71 which is a very large size and is often custom ordered.

The following pictures show the rim, aluminum ring, padding (which still soft) and the leather liner. The liner has been oiled to soften and maintain the leather. Part of the chin strap is also visible.

The edge of the liner shows some black markings which may have been occured by the chin strap rubbing against it (Below-left). The rivets are clearly visible. When taken apart there are two washer-like pieces.

Unfortunatelly, the markings on the liner are not shown very clearly here. The padding on top of the helmet can be seen through the circles of the liner. This padding is very firm to the touch.

A couple of close-ups of the chin strap follow. The stiching pattern on the liner can be seen clearly. A close view of the chin strap buckle is also included here.

A helmet cover is included. Pictures of the front, side, top and an inside view are provided.
