This interesting M 35 helmet comes complete of its untouched aluminium band but shows some repairs (believed to be made during the war or in the ’50) made with a second origina leather.

The most interesting point is an artwork made on the external part of the shell. R.I.P. is clearly written with black paint (rest in peace?), a swastika si painted on the top and something like a sort of skull is painted on one side.

This was probably an helmet left on the top of the cross on a tomb and later repaired. The right decal is still in place at 60%. Grey blue paint is mixed with rusty surfaces all over the shell.
