Luftwaffe M40 Single Decal Combat Helmet (Stahlhelm M40). The steel construction M40 helmet retains most of its rough textured, blue-gray paint and about 95% of the decal. All three liner retaining rivets are intact. The interior of the helmet is a M31 leather liner with all eight fingers intact and the original liner cord is present, the liner is size '56' marked. The leather is in supple condition. The shell is marked with maker and size 'EF64'. 'EF' is indicating production by the 'Emaillerwerke AG' in Fulda. The reverse interior neck guard apron has a stamped lot-number '0077'. The helmet is complete with its original 1941 dated leather chinstrap. The helmet has recenty been found in Germany and is still a bit dusty. I left the helmet in untouched and uncleaned condition as found, it's up to the buyer to decide if you want to clean it or not. Nice and honest untouched original Luftwaffe M40 combat helmet in good used condition!
