WW2 German M40 'Tortoise Shell' Camouflage Helmet
Interesting ' barnfind' M40 camouflage helmet with three colour tortoise shell effect swirled camouflage scheme.
As is typical , the entirety of the helmet has received a tan base colour overpaint with large forest green oval segments applied over the top & bordered with a lighter almost lime green edging. There is very old rust bleed to the entirety of the exterior but with the camouflage still prominent. All three liner pins are undisturbed , the one on the front right has lost its outer cap & is totally original to the helmet. The leather liner has remains of soldiers name & number written in pencil onto it , there is what appears to be a mouse chew to its front edge at forehead area & also to one of the fingers. Drawcord present. Leather chinstrap intact.
