Original French WWI M15 Adrian Helmet
Up for sale is a very nice and original French WWI model 1915, or M15, Adrian helmet. Interestingly this Adrian helmet has had a brass plate attached to its front brim. This was commonly done by French veterans who kept their combat used helmet as a souvenir. The plate reads : “Soldier of the Great War 1914 – 1918”. The shell is still complete with a very nice blue paint, and shows minor damage likely from its use during the war.
