For sale is a WWI British-made Mk I Brodie helmet with a hand-painted camouflage pattern of ochre yellow, green, blue and maroon patches outlined in blue, with "AEF" painted on both sides. The steel shell has the separate folded rim, and the inside of the brim is stamped with a maker and batch code that appears to read ZB 55.

The camouflage paint shows light scuffs and wear, and the liner shows age with some deterioration, as shown in the photos.
