Russian Soviet 1941 model issue steel helmet made in blockaded Leningrad and designed after the British MK1 model Helmet. This is a helmet as used by paramilitary troops like anti-aircraft defense and militia units, but at the same time there are many period photos where the helmet could be seen worn by combat units also. The helmet still retains almost all of its original olive green paint, showing some minor rust spots. The helmet is complete with its original size '55' liner and chinstrap. Extremely rare original blockaded Leningrad made helmet in good used condition!
