Kano Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hello all, I recently was given this helmet by a friend. It's fibre or plastic based, and it certainly has some age to it. I think it may be a Civil Defence type helmet worn by the likes of Bus Drivers, etc. Opinions? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kano Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Thanks Mike. I've done a lot more research and I believe you were spot on. A 1900s Pulpwear childs (52cm) mining helmet.
