FEUERSCHUTZPOLIZEI M34 HELMETFeuerpolizei M34 civil style double decal helmet, painted in black with canted swastika and national escutcheon shield decals. The shell has two plugs used to close the hole where the aluminum comb would have been affixed, and there are two vent holes on either side, above each decal. The finish shows scuffs and scratches, fairly typical of normal extended use. The interior has a nine finger liner with pressed cork separating the liner from the shell. The top of the shell is separated from the wearer by an additional leather-covered pad. The rear of the apron is stamped by maker: "D.R.P."

EUROPEAN PARADE OR FIRE HELMETSteel helmet of unknown origin, with a bright polished finish and a comb welded to the crown. No liner is present, but a leather strap runs across the inside of the crown. A black leather chin strap with a clasp at one end is present, and is secured by a replacement loop of twisted wire. The helmet is superficially similar to a German "stahlhelm"-style helmet, but the shape is markedly different from known examples of German parade helmets. The helmet bears some oxidation within, and minor dents, scuffs, scratches, and tape residue on the exterior, else very good.

GERMAN FIRE PROTECTION POLICE HELMETSteel alloy M1934 combat helmet, painted black overall, with a shield-shaped swastika decal on the right-hand side, and a decal bearing the national police insignia on the left. The crown of the helmet bears two oblong holes, which would have accommodated an aluminum comb, unfortunately not present here. The inside of the right rim is heat-stamped "Thale-Stahl", indicating that it was manufactured by the Eisenhuttenwerke at Thale. The ten-finger brown leather liner is intact, and bears the name "Job Ridder" in black ink. The liner also bears an incised cross design. The leather chin strap is present and intact, with some cracking. Both decals are mostly intact, although the swastika shield is heavily crackled, possibly indicating heat exposure. Very good.

ENGRAVED FRENCH WORLD WAR "ADRIAN" PARADE HELMETWorld War I-era M15 "Adrian" helmet, with a metal comb affixed to the crown with four pins, and with the insignia of the French infantry - a flaming bomb with the initials "RF"(Republique Francaise) - at the front. The helmet features an intact six-finger brown leather liner, mounted within the shell. Unusually, the exterior of the shell is highly polished, and engraved on the front and rear rims and on the crown with laurel branches. The rear bill is also engraved "1914-1918", and the helmet was likely used in the many victory parades held across France at the conclusion of the war. The chin strap is missing, and the liner is partially detached, else very good. The Adrian is widely considered to be the first steel combat helmet in regular service in the modern era.

FRENCH M15 "ADRIAN" HELMETWorld War I-era M15 "Adrian" helmet, with a metal comb affixed to the crown with four pins, and with the insignia of the French infantry - a flaming bomb with the initials "RF"(Republique Francaise) - at the front.

The brown leather chinstrap is intact and secured over the brim. The helmet is painted dark blue throughout. The interior leather is dried out, and the helmet bears expected minor oxidation and age wear throughout, else very good. The Adrian is widely considered to be the first steel combat helmet in regular service in the modern era.

The bill of the helmet bears an attractive metal plaque with laurel branches in relief, and bearing the legend "Soldat de La Grande Guerre 1914-1918" ("Soldier of the Great War"). The helmet is painted dark blue throughout. The interior leather is dried out, and the helmet bears expected minor oxidation and age wear throughout, else very good. The Adrian is widely considered to be the first steel combat helmet in regular service in the modern era.
