Austria Aluminum helmet (˜1970)
In this collection since: 22.03.2004
0186 Fire helmet from the Austrian region Steiermark, German production according to DIN 14940 at 1970. The high gloss painted, black helmet, has an cockscomb, a circulating, silver reflective stripe and at the front the coat of arms of the region Steiermark. The helmet makes a very "broad" impression, he actually measures 25 cm at teh broadest place while other helmets have between 21 and 24cm. In former years every Austrian region could buy the helmets they wants to have an so they bought the German helmets made of light aluminum. The helmet doesn't have neck leather, the fastenings for this are existing. The helmet comes from the little municipality of Underburg near Liezen.
