Product description

n exceptional piece of WWII history: a genuine German combat helmet recovered from the historic battlegrounds of Sinyavino, the epicenter of Operation Iskra (January 1943)—the brutal Soviet offensive that finally broke the Siege of Leningrad.
* Historical Context: Found in the infamous Sinyavino marshes/heights. This area saw some of the most intense, claustrophobic, and bloody fighting on the Eastern Front. A true artifact of a monumental historical turning point.
* Condition: The metal shell is in excellent, near-perfect condition. It required minimal body filler (bondo) during restoration because the original steel remained incredibly solid and well-preserved. It is a very heavy, robust, and sturdy helmet.
* Size: 66 (large shell size, highly sought after by collectors).
* Restoration: Professionally cleaned, treated, and beautifully restored for prime display. Solid, clean, and looks stunning.
