Original US WWII M1 Swivel Bale Helmet With Firestone Liner and Net

This is an authentic World War II U.S. M1 helmet featuring a swivel bale design. The steel shell has been repainted and no longer retains its original cork-textured finish. It is fitted with a period web chinstrap in solid, functional condition, showing light, age-appropriate wear.

The included liner was manufactured by Firestone and retains its original factory paint, though it shows scattered small scuff marks consistent with use.

Additional liner details:

• Liner’s suspension system: Fully intact, strong, and in excellent condition with no damage.

• Sweatband: Post-war replacement. Leather remains supple.

• Neck strap: Original, marked as Size Small.

• Chinstrap: Original, marked "DOT," with minor corrosion.

The original helmet net is present and remains in good, usable condition despite a small hole.

Overall, this is a well-preserved example of a WWII M1 helmet assembly, ideal for collectors, reenactors, or historical display.
