Small Type 90 IJA Helmet

Hello all,I thought I would post a few pics of the only small size Type 90 in my collection.The liner is dated Showa 16 or 1941 by western calendars.I believe it was never issued.The chinstraps are the later "silky" type as opposed to the earlier cotton type and although there is some moisture damage around the rim it still has a great look to it.Does anyone recall seeing a small sized helmet with the kanji for small being stamped as opposed to the painted markings ? Regards,Geoff
