A very nice early WW2 tommy helmet complete with original liner and chinstrap, the helmet shell started out coated with the early war shiny green paintwork, the original can be seen to the underside and inside of the helmet, this early shiny paintwork was soon discovered to be too reflective thus making the perfect target for the enemy, the helmets were soon re-called and re-painted with a rough textured dark mat green/brown paintwork as has happened to this one. The shell retains much original rough textured paintwork with minor age related scrapes and marks but it does have a lovely aged patina to it (the photos don’t do it justice), the liner fitting bolt looks to have a slightly different shade of green to it but is original. the underside of the shell shows its original early war finish, the rim is clearly dated 1939, the liner is in lovely condition and again dated 1939 it is a very large size 7 ¼ and will fit a head with a circumference of up to 23 inches and is more like a 7 ½ than 7 ¼, the chinstrap is tatty and worn but the original. A nice honest helmet in good combat issued condition.
