Nice early US M1 Helmet with Inland liner set. Helmet shell is a McCord lot #219C that estimated production of July/Aug’42. Shell features Stainless Steel Rim, Front Seam & Fixed Loops. Chinstrap hardware has early Brass Raised Bar Buckle and Milled J-Hook on the short strap. All original corking and it appears to have had a band of paint on the bottom to the rim that has been painted over. Possible NAVY use or to cover the rim as paint tended to wear off easily. Liner is manufactured by INLAND. Features are cotton webbing, Unpainted Steel Washers, Sweatband with green hardware, Nape Strap and Original Greenbuckle hardware. Liner has paint loss, not uncommon on early liners. 1942 production components to the liner also. Overall, a very desirable Early M1 Helmet that is a must for any WWII collection.
