M42 German Army (Heer) Combat Helmet — by CKL
A nice German Army (Heer) Combat Helmet. The finish is a smooth field-gray with the expected use wear. There are no dents, and no areas on the exterior showing severe paint loss or rust like we sometimes see with these (especially on the top of the helmet). There is what we assume to be a paint scuff on the top of the helmet, approximately 1.5 inch by 2.5 inches…

A nice German Army (Heer) Combat Helmet. The finish is a smooth field-gray with the expected use wear. There are no dents, and no areas on the exterior showing severe paint loss or rust like we sometimes see with these (especially on the top of the helmet). There is what we assume to be a paint scuff on the top of the helmet, approximately 1.5 inch by 2.5 inches.
The single Heer decal is very proud, but does have a couple nicks where the decal has been worn away – the largest area being about 1/2 inch by 1/4 inch.
The interior liner is in excellent shape, with use wear consistent with the exterior. The leather is still very supple, not dry or hard, and still has the draw string threaded through the eight liner tongues. Handwritten on the liner is the owner’s name, “M. A. Ludwig Hackl” The original chin strap is also present on this one. The strap shows typical wear, but is still strong sand flexible, and includes all hardware.

Luftwaffe M42 Winter Camo Single Decal SD Helmet
SOLD!We may have more in stock and just not yet listed. Click here to send us a message and let us know what you're looking to buy.Here we have an interesting M42 Luftwaffe Single Decal helmet with the remnants of the winter camo still present around the eagle, the rim, and other areas of the exterior. This is not uncommon as the soldier “scrubbed” the camo on/off of the helmet depending on the terrain. Winter camo Luftwaffe helmets are very difficult to find in any condition, and while the white of the camo has been scrubbed from the surface, even having the remnants present makes this a rare find.
