Hong Kong Made British MK II Helmet 1941

Description

Hong Kong Made British MK II Helmet 1941 as worn by defence forces in the Port of Hong Kong and most likely during the Battle of Hong Kong. The helmet is constructed of magnetic steel, the helmet brim is folded over to give it the look of not having a rim, known as the “Dutch Fold”, this is a characteristic you find on Hong Kong made helmets. The helmet is complete with its original size '7' (56) liner, maker marked by the 'Chiap Hua Manufacturing Company' in Hong Kong and dated 1941. The liner dome pad is missing. The helmet is complete with original chinstrap. Only very few of these Hong Kong made MKII helmets are in existence today and are missing from most of the serious WW2 British helmet collections. This helmet was found in a private household in the Netherlands. Extremely rare original helmet in very good condition!
