Arab Legion

[Peter_Suciu]

Here is a recent pickup. Something "completely" different. This is an Arab Legion, later the Jordanian National Guard, helmet. These were issued in gray/khaki, and in black for the military police units. I'm hoping to find a gray/khaki one as well. But I was fortunate enough to find this one.

This example is undated, but was made by Hobson & Sons, London, which should date it to pre-1948.
