Polish Armed Forces in the West UK MKII 1942 Helmet

[Linasl]

Hello.  I am a seller of militaria.  I specialize in French items, but am interested in militaria from all over the world.

I have an opportunity to buy a helmet on a local auction in Poland.  The seller says it is an original Polish Armed Forces Helmet in the West United Kingdom MKII 1942 issue.  If you know about this type of items, can you please take a look at the photos I provide?

Again, I am asking because I resell.  The seller of this helmet is asking a significant sum and I do not want to pay if it is not original.

Thank you.  Linas

Hello ,the helm looks pretty original but a detail is interesting .usually the Polish eagle was paited in white over red over the helms . for some reason that you must question to the owner ,here the eagle is not painted but merely outlined in red .

Linas,
Polish Army in Exile helmets are being heavily faked. I would stay away of helemts without proved provenience!
