Hello all, I have recently decided that a German Helmet is the next best addition for my collection. I need to do some more saving an would like to buy a good condition single decal M40. This one has come up and seems to be in rough condition but the name has got me interested. I also have no idea on its originality, it’s priced a $500 which seems a little steep but I may be able to haggle him down a bit. Lastly I would like to know about any good helmet books for someone like me who won’t Specifically collect helmets but is interested in buying more than one.

Any help is always appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Bodhi
