Ww1 Austrian'berndorfer' Steel Helmet Original. + White Rectangle, Uiltra Rare

On offer is an ultra rare WW1 Steel helmet known as a AUSTRIAN BERNDORFER. Manufactured by Krupp, Berndorfer Metalwarenfabrik in 1916/1917 with only a small number being produced. It is the rarest of the WW1 Helmets by far and is the first I have owned in over 45 years in the business. The helmet has no liner although it does have most of the band and one chinstrap holder. It is solid with no holes or weak spots to the shell and weighs 1.250 kilos.

Some slight corrosion to one edge of the skirt which does not show from the side otherwise all good. Makers mark to rear inner skirt also.

This helmet still has the remains of the white rectangle at the rear which was to assist identification at night and also the screw which holds the carrying bracket. Very hard to find in any condition.

A RARE UNTOUCHED HELMET, and 100%. Military Trader (UK) International - Purveyors of Military Antiques - Govt Surplus, Reclamation & Architectural Antiques. The above picture is taken from'Helmets of the First World War' by Haselgrove & Radovic & illustrates that teh Berndorfer helmet with the same white rectangle as the one offered in this listing. It also has no White rectangle on the back and it is nowhere near as good an example as this..... And its 699.00 EUROS.
