Wehrmacht (Heer)/Waffen-SS M42 Combat Helmet (Stahlhelm M42). The stamped sheet steel construction M42 helmet retains most of its rough textured field-grey paint. The paint shows normal traces and small scratches caused by storage. All three liner retaining rivets are intact. The interior of the helmet is an M31 leather liner, the leather is in very good and supple condition. The metal liner ring is nicely marked and dated 1943. The liner is size '58' marked. The liner comes without drawstring. The shell is nicely maker and size marked with 'ckl66' which indicates production by the 'Eisen-und Hüttenwerke, AG' in Thale/Harz. The reverse interior neck guard apron has a stamped serial number '5140'. The helmet comes without chinstrap as found. This helmet was recently found in Zwolle in the Netherlands and is in uncleaned condition as found. Nice original late war M42 combat helmet in very good condition!
