【Overview】 This is a real M42 helmet. I am selling it to organize my collection. 【Size, Code Name, Manufacturer】 Shell Size: 64cm Code Name: CKL Manufacturer: Eisen-und Huttenwerke, AG Thale/Harz ↓↓↓↓ Overseas collectors seem to abbreviate it as Thale. The often-seen ET code stamp was also made by Thale. 【Description】 ⚫︎ckl stamp [Photo ❹] ⚫︎Stamp present. [Photo ❺ This stamp is proof that it passed the quality inspection and was stamped by an inspector dispatched from the Ministry of Defense (Reichskriegsministerium). Note that it is a sampling inspection from the lot, so it is not stamped on all helmets.] ⚫︎Single decal can be confirmed, though it is peeling. ⚫︎The leather liner and chin strap were removed due to deterioration from the time of purchase. For reference, [Photo 11] shows photos of ckl M42 helmets brought together by overseas collectors. When handling, I always wear palm fit gloves [Photo 12] and handle it carefully. This item is only for display, and it is in its original condition. Please purchase only if you understand antiques. Real items from the former German army are rare and rarely appear on the market due to their historical background. #FrenchArmy #GermanArmy #BritishArmy #SwedishArmy #AmericanArmy #USArmy #ItalianArmy #CanadianArmy #DutchArmy #Euro #Europe #Vintage #Vintage #10s #20s #30s #40s #50s #60s #70s #80s #90s #France #French #FrenchArmy #RoyalNavy #RAF #Pants #Jacket #Military #SurvivalGame #Outdoor #Camping #Mountaineering #UsedClothing #UsedClothingStore #MilitaryItems #MilitaryUniform
