France - Army/Infantry - Military helmet - adrian 1915

Adrian helmet model 1915, used by the poilus during World War I (1914-1918). Beautiful period paint in horizon blue, anti-reflective and dark. This helmet left the factory with the light, bright horizon-blue paint of the 1st model, still visible on the interior. It was subsequently repainted in accordance with the 1916 directives, with a dark, matte paint to improve camouflage. Without its leather interior, but with a chin strap that is not the regulatory model. Grenade insignia. Inside, the manufacturer mark: "Le Jouet de Paris". A classic helmet, but a superb piece in its patina. To clean or to leave as is. Shipped by La Poste or by Mondial Relay.

Estimate:£61.88
