Imperial German WWI Artillery Kugelhelm Camouflage Field Cover

Imperial German WWI Artillery Kugelhelm Camouflage Field Cover

Private purchase uberzug for an artillery kugelhelm, heavily stained and worn with great field service character, retains about half of it's green wool unit numerals "57" on the front.  Interior has "D.R.P." on the reinforced visor covers (Deutsches Reichspatent or German Imperial Patent, used roughly from 1877 to 1945 on patented items in Germany.)  This is not the cover for a collector who prioritizes brand-new, unissued condition materials.. but for those who like their WWI artifacts to convey the mud, soil, grime, and wear of trench warfare - this one fits the description perfectly.
