Description
This is an original restored Soviet SSH39 helmet in the rarely encountered size 3 or 59 cm. The helmet was fully stripped of post war paint then repainted the correct shade of Soviet Moss green. The helmet’s liner frame is original and is matched to the helmet. The liner is a museum quality reproduction made with vintage cloth. This liner is the third and last pattern used in this model helmet. The chinstrap is original, but maybe from the post-war era, as the design did not change. The helmet does not have a red star on the from. The factories were ordered to stop the application in early 1940. However, they can be applied free of charge on request.
The helmet has been lightly distressed for a field look.
