FRENCH M26 'ADRIAN' HELMET
World War II-era M26 'Adrian' helmet, with a metal comb affixed to the crown with four pins, and with the insignia of the French artillery service - a flaming bomb with the initials 'RF' ('Republique Francaise') in front of two crossed cannons - on a circular disk at the front. The interior features an intact six-finger black leather liner, mounted on four square metal struts, and secured at the center by an adjustable cord. The helmet is painted olive green throughout. The leather chinstrap also present. Leather liner slightly cracking, paint slightly chipping, and the central disc potentially a replacement. Estimated accordingly.
