Imperial German WWI Camouflaged M16 Helmet

Imperial German WWI Camouflaged M16 Helmet

Model 1916 stalhelm retains ~75% original camouflage painted finish worked in an interesting wave pattern around the helmet of dark green segments with black bordered ocher tan segments within, and dark brown crown extending down in the gaps between the green 'waves'.  This seems like one of those patterns that is memorable enough that someone will eventually luck out and find an original period photo of a frontschwein wearing one painted in this fashion.

Retains two of the three correct original liner pins, lacks the liner.  Interior has "BF 6(?)" size stamp from the maker F.C. Bellinger.  

$500 - $600
