   Waffen-SS M1935 Reissued Helmet Photos

This scarce single decal M1935 reissued Waffen-SS helmet exhibits the standard characteristics of helmets repainted and reissued in the 1940 time frame.  The helmet displays a repainted finish both inside and out, and the paint color is one that appears to be more gray than green in color.  The paint has a medium level of texture to reduce glare.  The helmet has been decorated with the expected "first pattern" C.A. Pocher pattern decal which has been applied without a protective lacquer finish.  The helmet displays manufacturing marks indicating that it was once an early production helmet of the Thale plant sometime in the 1935-1939 time period.
