Description

Authentic Waffen SS Tropical Pith Helmet. Excellent example is in very good condition, with all components intact. The original khaki cloth covering is intact and retains its original color well but does show staining from use and age. The helmet band, is in excellent condition. The SS and National Flag shields are zinc and have the maker LN 1942 and FP 1942 on the reverse. This is a proper maker for SS shields. These shields are guaranteed to be original to the helmet. An exceedingly rare helmet!
