RAF B-type flying helmet

SOLD

Code: H24786



Stores reference 22c/65.  Size 1 (61/2 - 63/4) but doesn't seem as small as this would suggest.  The helmet appears to have started life as an 'as issued' example without earpieces.  The leather is in excellent overall condition, supple and clean.  Both straps and Bennett buckles are very good and the lining is really quite clean.  The Air Ministry embossed zipped earpieces and rubber receiver carriers are reproductions produced by Sefton Clothing and while the chamois donuts are original, they have been added.  Ink stamped Air Ministry reference, size, and A.I.D. marks.  Sold unwired. A really nice looking helmet.   Stock code H24671.
