    French WW1 Adrian helmet

    I recently picked up a very nice French WW1 infantry helmet. I found some papers sticked between the liner and the helmet shell. To my pleasant surprise I found a newspaper inside from September 12, 1915, called "les Annales". "Les annales" was a paper with news, stories, poems, musique, drawings and much more. It was printed on bad quality paper.

    I have put the paper in a small frame to display it with the helmet.

    Hope you liked it !
