Original WWII British 1945 Dated MkI Dispatch Rider Helmet by Briggs Motor Bodies Ltd. - Size 7
-
Original Item: Only One Available. This is an excellent condition original WWII British MK I Dispatch Rider helmet. The shell has original paint with no major dents or dings that we can see, just a bit of scuffing and flaking, with a few scratches on the top from storage. The leather liner and ear flaps are soft and supple, though there is a bit of verdigris around the buttons, eyelets and buckle. The liner is also becoming partially detached from the helmet.
The leather liner is nicely marked with BMB and dated 1945, and is marked with size 7 inside a shield. BMB is the marking for Briggs Motor Bodies Ltd., who also made Brodie and other helmets for the British war effort. The wool felt ear padding is still intact. The chin strap snap still works, as does the buckle, and the rear lacing is intact.
Comes ready for further research and display.
