WW2 German Czech Reissued Luftschutz Helmet

Interesting Czech M32 helmet captured & reissued as a Luftschutz helmet .
These reissues were simply overpainted on the outside in a smooth medium grey finish as of the late '44 period with Luftschutz decal then applied to front. This piece still has the original brown Czech paint to inside with all five of its off white liner pads present. Leather chinstrap also intact. The Czech depot markings are still visible with the German name of ' Harnisch ' handwritten above it by the new owner. Exterior has a very German medium grey paint used on these as of late 1944 & very reminiscent of the luftwaffe colour.
Overall service wear with a tear to one of the pads which has a basic collector repair. Interesting part of the Luftschutz story.
