This is an original WWII USMC M1 helmet set. We have not separated the liner from the shell or removed the camouflage cover, however its prior owner did when taking pictures and we can guarantee the cover has foliage slits in both the body and the flaps (i.e., the earliest production variation). Additionally, there are no EGAs stamped on the cover. The McCord manufactured swivel loop helmet shell's chinstraps retain a steel raised-bar buckle, which denotes mid-war production. The chinstraps are not damaged, however masking tape appears to have been used to provide a tighter fit. The Inland/Firestone manufactured helmet liner features blackened brass A-washers and a khaki suspension, dating the liner's production from mid-1944 to 1945. The khaki suspension is intact, but fraying near the wearer's front left A-washer. It comes complete with its original headband and neckband. The headband's leather is marked with the surname of its original owner, "Lindauer".
