WW2 German Double Decal M35 Luftwaffe Helmet With Luft. 'Ausb.37' Unit Marking To Chinstrap & Liner

Interesting Luftwaffe helmet that was recently found near Paris with Luftwaffe unit marked & LBA stamped chinstrap & unit stamping of ' Flieger Ersatz Abteilung 37' to underside of liner.
Still bearing its tricolour national shield the second pattern eagle is faint on the left side due to extensive wear. Its early factory painted dark blue/ grey is much evident to its entirety with minor surface chips & scuffs from heavy wear. All three of the liner pins are original & undisturbed . Underside of the helmets rim shows maker mark' NS64' with lot number 'E138' .The leather liner is totally uncleaned & left as it was found with the original drawstring allowing us to see the unit ink stamp to underside of the leather. The German Feldpost number of 'L13101' has been painted to underside of rear rim. The brown leather chinstrap is its early issue with LBA inspection mark ( Luftwaffe Bekleidungs Amt ) & the remains of a unit mark also . Buckle is of aluminium.
A nice untouched helmet no doubt from a busy Luftwaffe Flak or ground unit fighting in the last days of WW2.
