Wehrmacht (Heer) M40 Single Decal Combat Helmet (Stahlhelm M40). The stamped sheet steel construction M40 helmet retains most of its rough textured, field-grey paint. The paint shows normal wear and scratches caused by usage, see photos. A standard Heeres decal is applied to the left side of the helmet, the decal is retained for about 75%. All three liner retaining rivets are intact. The interior of the helmet is an early M31 leather liner with reinforced aluminum liner-ring, all eight fingers are present, the liner is a size '56'. The liner is complete with its original liner cord. The shell is marked with maker and size 'EF64'. 'EF' is indicating production by the 'Emaillerwerke AG' from Fulda. The reverse interior neck guard apron has a stamped lot-number '22461'. The helmet is complete with an original early chinstrap with aluminum buckle, the chinstrap unfortunately is in damaged/repaired condition. Nice original M40 combat helmet in good used condition!
