Description
Austrian Polizei M16 transitional helmet in a size 66. The small pin holes on the left side show where the Austrian Police insignia was mounted. By the mid-1930’s these helmets were reissued to German Police of the Third Reich where they received some fresh paint and decals. The liner is original to the helmet and is in terrific shape. It looks to be a size 59 and is complete with all 3 cushion pads and the original draw string. It has some dark sweat/dirt staining but no rips or tears. The chinstrap and roller buckle is also complete, the long strap is full length and very pliable. The chinstrap has a Polizei unit marking LGK. ST. (Landes Gerdarmerie Kommando- Styria). The stitching on the keeper/loop of the chinstrap has broken loose on one side, but is still held securely in place. Overall, a fantastic helmet!
