Description
 
Unissued Original German WWII M44 Luftschutz Gladiator Helmet Size 64 - This Luftschutz helmet is an unissued and exceptionally well-preserved example of the late war M44 model, first manufactured in 1944. Distinguished by its one-piece construction, this model is often found without the Luftschutz decal, setting it apart from its predecessors. The correct flat black finish, characteristic of late models, remains intact, showcasing the helmet's originality.
The liner, crafted in the style of the standard military M31 liner with a drawstring, is in mint condition. The size marking "56" indicates the helmet's size, ensuring a proper fit. Notably, the clear plastic chinstrap with a buckle attached to the liner adds to the completeness of the piece.
Given its unissued status, this Luftschutz helmet is in near-mint to excellent condition. The absence of wear and use contributes to its remarkable preservation and makes it a highly desirable piece for collectors interested in late-war German helmets. The combination of historical significance, unaltered finish, and pristine condition makes this M44 Luftschutz helmet a noteworthy addition to any WWII militaria collection.
