Mexico Synthetic helmet (˜1980)
In this collection since: 12.05.2003
0163 Fire helmet of the work fire department of the printery Cento Grafico Industrial S.A., de C.V. 04040 Mexico City. The white Polycarbonathelm is the same brand as the Canadian helmet no.: 132. The manufacturer is "Safety Supply Company- Willson, Toronto Canada". The type is called "Super Chieftain". The helmet has unlike the no.: 132 no neck guard, however a eye shield made of plexiglas put up. A metal angle on the upper edge of the eye protection prevents, that the plexiglas fells too far to below. "Plectron" stands on the angle and "Shield only 54-3851, with brackets 54-3852", Plectron Corporation Overton, Nebraska 68863. This seems to be the manufacturer of the shield. The helmet can be worn over a chinstrap which is fastened to the helmet directly. The helmet in the typically American form has a similarity with the Swiss helmets at 1975. See no. 4 and 81. The helmet was produced 1980.
