Original German WWI M16 Stahlhelm Helmet with Panel Camouflage Paint & Liner - Named - Marked ET64 ERA and the barrel band isOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of a totally original WWI German M16 Helmet, with a very nice "paneled" camouflage paint scheme. This was a very popular type of camouflage used on both sides of WWI. The stamped, sheet steel construction helmet retains about 90% of its original hand painted camouflage paint. This was painted over the original field gray paint, so this is visible in areas where the paint has flaked off.
