LW Helmet M35 DD

Luftwaffe M35 DD Helmet – Early War Double Decal Combat Helmet

This is a stunning and highly collectible example of an original Luftwaffe M35 Double Decal (DD) Steel Helmet, featuring both early war decals: the Luftwaffe eagle and the national tricolor shield. Helmets of this configuration are increasingly rare and sought after by collectors of German WWII militaria.

Crafted from high-quality steel, this helmet retains its original Luftwaffe blue-grey combat paint, showing honest wear from field use. Both decals remain visible, with the Luftwaffe eagle on the left and the national colors on the right side – a textbook early war configuration. The liner is present and remains in strong condition, exhibiting age and use consistent with the helmet's service life. The chinstrap is also intact, showing wear but complete.
