RAF E-type flying helmet

SOLD

Code: H26157



Stores reference 22c/974, size 2 (63/8-7).  The aertex cloth is fairly clean and in excellent overall condition.  Both rubber earpieces look excellent and are flexible.  The interior of the helmet is very good and the chamois donuts remain clean and soft.  Well marked with reference numbers, size/A.I.D. marks and what appears to be a '1944' date.  Fitted with a later webbing chinstrap that is soiled and a little ragged.  All the goggle straps are excellent and the press stud poppers retain virtually all of the original brown coating.  Wired with a lovely mid tan coloured instrument cord, black cased type 119 jackplug and matched Air Ministry marked type 32 receivers.  A very good example.  Stock code H26157.
