WW1 German M17 Steel Helmet With Chinstrap

One of the best M17 steel combat helmets we have seen for some time this piece with a high proportion of its original factory paint remaining & original steel buckles chinstrap intact.
Marked 'Q66' to underside of rim this is a large sized helmet made by Quist with '66' denoting the size. Interior has a totally intact liner system with off white chromed leather pad holders all still containing their cushions. One pad holder bears faint oval maker stamp . The metal band has never been interfered with all three rivets totally undisturbed. Finally the chinstrap is textbook & totally intact.
Sings of only light service wear throughout , some sweat staining to liner pads . Overall superb textbook example.
