1942 Canadian Naval Pattern Wolseley Helmet

Hi all. Just thought I would share this. Parents occasionally go to a very small rural sale that usually yield nothing in terms of militaria, however they found this and gave me a call, (as they described it over the phone I had my doubts about it even being military in origin, they didn’t mention a date). Anyway, upon having it in hand and doing a bit of research it appears to be a Canadian Naval Pattern Wolseley Helmet. Clearly been messed with, missing liner and chinstrap and looks to have had the top vent replaced for some reason but it displays really well. I understand these are hard to come by? Who knows how it ended up in rural England. Any comments are welcome. Thanks for looking.

P.S. They paid…….. £1 cool militaria
