Hi

Was clearing the attick at a relative and found this wall flag or what it is called from the Olympics in Berlin 1936 and another which says it is kaiserliche reichskriegs-flg on the print

I dont know the full story but know that it was given as a present after the end of the war. My relative was an engineer and doing some work for defense contractors.

How can I checkif if it is not a fake, I dont belive so but would like to make sure just in case I decide to try to sell it.

Thx for checking ut my post - any feed back would be welcomed

I found this helmet many years ago at a yard sale, in the condition you see it in now. Now, I’m thinking about restoring it but, before I do, I would like to confirm that the black paint on it was not put on in military service. I expect it was added post-war by somebody trying to make the helmet look "cool" but, as I’m not 100% sure about this, I’m hoping the specialists on this board might offer their opinion. If the black paint is a genuine part of the helmet’s military history, I’d hate to strip it off.

Anyway, here it is:

Thanks!
