Original German WWII M35 DD Luftwaffe Camo Helmet
Up for sale is a very nice and original German WWII M35 DD Luftwaffe helmet with an applied camouflage. In a beautiful state, both decals are present, and great contrast with the camouflage that was added. The German National decal is in great shape and luckily not covered by the helmets camo. The camouflage appears to be in 2 colors, green and yellow. Brush marks around the helmet can be noted which give a lot of character to the piece.
After the helmets capture, it sat in the closet of the Veteran in near perfect condition for 60+ years until around 2005. It is from our understanding that the veteran died at this time, and the helmet was moved to a new location where rust started to take over the shell. It is such a shame as well, as the helmet could have truly been a stunning example if it was not for this. All in all though the helmet is a great piece, and if kept in a climate controlled environment could remain as is for many years!
