WWII Spanish Army Helmet -
This is a fine example of a Spanish M-26 helmet manufactured by Germany for Spain in the 1920's.
This helmet was employed during WWII.
This helmet is patterned in a very similar fashion to its German counterpart, therefore, it is often confused with a
German WWII helmet. Upon closer inspection the differences between both helmets become more apparent. Items such as the
headliner, weight and placement of rivets create the distinction.
This example has the Spanish Eagle emblem in the front of the helmet. The eagle is manufactured
of a light, tin metal. Painted golden with a touch of red.
The inside of the helmet reveals a syspension system built from a combination of leather
and green canvis. The edges of the helmet are not rolled. They are straight and have
been sanded to eliminate sharpness.
The chin strap is made of green canvis. One side has a buckle. The other side has holes
which allow the tightness of the grip to be adjusted.
