For the friends of the Luftschutz helmets....It took a while until I got one of these-you know how difficult it is to find an M42 with a good decal! Both helmets are "EF" stamped-Nr.1 is shurly a very late one...have a look at the liner-the last of the last(model Endsieg).the chinstrab was ripped out with brute force....that's why the liner is damaged too....The other one is a little earlier helmet-good liner,good chinstrap and a good decal:collector,what do you want more....... Micha Helmet 1
Funny thing-I've got two EK2"FR",both with the same core.....and three "Fr"EK2-all totally different!But one of my "Fr"EK1 looks like it has got a"FR" core! Strange........ Micha
It looks like a "Wa",but it could be also a "We". Ok,"We" is stamped usually at the small ring-but especially at the'14 EK2 everything is possible.....Gordon,do you think "FR" and "Fr" are just different variations of the same maker? Micha
For all the friends of the Luftschutz helmets-this one dropped in today..a fine,complete M40 with 100% decal! Just the chinstrap was shortened,possible by the original owner. But here are the pics.... Micha
Hi Don, that's a real killer helmet! Luftschutz helmets are my 2nd collecting field...especially captured and reissued helmets! Do you have more LS helmets? The most collectors are into the combat ones....... Regards Micha
Here I would like to show you my personal favourite-this "Silber" marked 1914 EK1 with a blued sheet metal core.I love the filigran crossarms! But my search is not over now.....there's also a variation with a "938"stamp......and of course a screwback ! Micha Obverse
