RAF C-type Flying Helmet - Late Pattern

Code: H18953

Stores Ref. 22c/879, Size 3 (6^7/8 - 7).  The leather is in good condition - a little scuffed in places but undamaged and fully supple.  All straps are quite good and retain virtually all of the original coatings on the press studs. The lining is a bit grimy with average soiling - more on the donuts and at the back of the neck as usual.  The rubber receiver carriers are good/undamaged but have lost some flexibility. The chinstrap is grubby and faded but retains some elasticity. Fully wired with a good mid tan coloured loom, matched 10A/13466 receivers and brown cased bell jackplug, the latter is chipped with loss of bakelite at the rim (see photo). Overall this is a good used example in a decent size. Stock code H18953.
