GERMAN M42 LUFTWAFFE SD HELMET - VERY LARGE SIZE 68 - PROVENANCE

Superb example which was a vet bring back from Kiel at the end of the war.
It was brought back by Douglas Reeman, famous writer of Naval histories who was a that time the skipper of an MTB.On VE day he was in Copenhagen , arriving in Kiel 3 days later.
Rare size 68 retaining almost all it's finish and a good decal. Liner good.
No chin strap although I have a late war RB numbered strap that would look good on this which I would offer to the buyer for an additional £150.
Nice helmet, nice provenance.
