Original German WWII Early Luftwaffe DD Helmet
Up for sale a very nice and original, German WWII Early Luftwaffe DD Helmet. This piece is really one of a kind and a helmet you will have tough time upgrading from. In near perfect condition, this M35 has a beautiful patina with a strong blue factory finish. Areas of the shell do show signs of period use which really give great character to the helmet. This Luftwaffe helmet is pre-war issued, and still current with its first pattern droop tail eagle. It also is complete with its German National Shield, or Tri-color decal. Looking at the top of the helmet, some rings can be noted. This is usually a sign that the helmet was stacked at one point. This was likely due to the helmet being surrendered after the war, and this being picked out as a souvenir.
Looking towards the inside of the helmet, we can see that the liner is in perfect shape. It really doesnt get better than this. Complete with all fingers, and its original draw string – the leather is still very soft and flexible. Also marked on the inside of the helmet is a very legible dome stamp. This reads :
L Kgs. Sch. Drasden
Looking at the brim of the helmet there is also a name! This reads :
Krabbes
Manufacture : ET 62
Batch Number: 3660 6
