ORIGINAL WW2 US M1 FIXED BALE STEEL COMBAT HELMET WITH MAJOR RANK AFFIXED

THIS WAS BOUGHT AROUND 2007 AT MY SHOP IN STE MERE EGLISE FROM A COLLECTOR. HE SAID IT HAD BEEN FOUND IN THE ST LO. REGION AND WAS A BARN FIND. I HAVE NO REASON TO DOUBT THIS. THE INSIDE IS FAIRLY PITTED

I HAVE HAD THIS IN MY OWN COLLECTION SINCE

THERE IS AND WAS NO LINER WITH THE HELMET, THERE ARE SEVERAL STRESS FRACTURES TO FRONT LEFT AND TWO CIRCLES WHERE PAINT IS REMOVED (POSSIBLY FROM SMALL HEAT SOURCE WHILE COOKING?)

NO STRAPS AND NO VISIBLE NUMBERS TO INSIDE
