Original WWII Italian M33 Helmet with Post War Sand Camouflage Paint and Stencil - Full Liner & Chinstrap - Size 57
-
Original Item: Only One Available. The M33 Helmet (Elmetto Mod. 33 in Italian) is a steel combat helmet designed in the 1930s in Italy, and was the standard combat helmet of the Regio Esercito up to World War II, and of the Esercito Italiano well into the Cold War. Designed by Nicola Leszl for the Mussolini Government, these have become extremely hard to find on the collectors market today, especially WWII examples that have not been refurbished.
This is an original example which has been applied with a post war applied replicated sand camouflage with a post war applied stencil added to the front consisting of a flaming bomb and crossed swords.
The interior shows that the leather liner is intact and in great shape. The leather chinstrap is still intact and is worn with some crazing. There is perforation in the liner for the size, 57. The rear of the shell is stamped B229. The chinstrap is a very interesting thin example which is still leather but possibly a wartime Ersatz variation.
A good M33 which has been refurbished by a collector. Ready to display.
