H-U296.  U.S.  Early WWII Marine combat Helmet...This is a most unusual early Helmet,    (((It has a very early  U.S.  WWII  Rare Hawley Experimental  Liner, the Hawley was the first try of Liners for the WWII helmet,  It turned out that Hawley liners were very Fragile and prone to water damage, Most ended up broken or damaged so production was stopped and a new compostion liner introduced for use during the rest of the War, making the Hawley a Rare bird to find still around)))  This one has been in this helmet since the war and to try and remove it would just distroy it. The helmet has early 1941-1942 Fixed bails with early stitched on ChinStraps. The camouflage cover is an early marine issue with no slits for camo folage to be placed in. Because of the liner not being able to be taken out safly, the cover has also not been able to be taken off.  What is under this cover is an unknow treasure for the next owner to discover or not.  Now the other unusual thing about this helmet, is the camouflage cover is covered with VietNam era Graffetti  -- Why - How come??? This is a one of a kind helmet for your collection....$900.00
