A really nice and rare untouched example of a former M1940 Heer single decal German combat helmet that was reissued for the RAD « Reichsarbeitsdienst ». This helmet was found in November 2023 in an attic in the city of Strasbourg in France, it has never been in a collection before, we recovered it directly from the heirs. It is in nice untouched condition, it remains in its as found condition. The helmet is an « ET64 » with a lot number of « 856 ». The helmet’s exterior retains over 85% of the green factory paint. Some soiling with a dust and dirty appearance remains untouched. The « RAD » decal has been nicely field applied over the slight shadow of the Heer decal. It rates at 90%. This can be seen in the excellent detailed photos below. Some normal to typical wear on the helmet is present. The interior is undisturbed and in its original as found state. The liner system is complete. Leather is nicely worn and still retains its original drawstring. Original chinstrap is complete and maker marked. The helmet is named twice. Plenty of dust, dirt and natural debris accumulation present around the liner band. A choice and scarce combat helmet particularly in this condition
