Wehrmacht (Heer) M42 Single Decal Combat Helmet (Stahlhelm M42). The stamped sheet steel construction M42 helmet retains most of its rough textured, field-grey paint. The paint shows normal wear and the left side of the helmet has a standard ET-Type Heeres decal which is retained for about 85%. All three liner retaining rivets are intact. The interior of the helmet has a M31 leather liner. The liner is size '58' marked and complete with original liner drawstring. The leather is in very good condition and shows some traces of leather grease. The shell is marked with maker and size 'ET66' which indicates production by the company 'Eisen-und Hüttenwerke, AG' in Thale/Harz. The reverse interior neck guard apron has a stamped serial number '2508'. There is a nice dome-stamp visible inside the shell. The helmet is complete with its original leather chinstrap, the chinstrap is nicely maker marked by the company of 'G.Schiele' from Loburg and dated 1942. Nice and honest original M42 combat helmet in very good condition!
