BAVARIAN PICKLEHAUBE

M40 NAMED LUFT HELMET

ALOT OF HISTORY WITH THIS HELMET.
IT IS IN ROUGH SHAPE WITH ABOUT 60% PAINT AND EAGLE LEFT, BUT MIGHT CLEAN UP NICE.
Q64 STAMPED TO INNER LEFT SIDE.
LINER IS COMPLETE WITH DRAWSTRING, BUT AGAIN, IN ROUGH CONDITION.
2 PIECES OF THE CHINSTRAP ARE PRESENT.
INNER REAR SKIRT IS NAMED "MAHL" WITH FIELDPOST NUMBER "L06713"
HERE IS THE HISTORY OF THE FP NUMBER:

L06713
Mobilmachung 1.1.1940
8. Flughafen - betriebs - Kompanie
Lehr - Geschwader 1 (15-9-1940 - 31-1-1941)
8 Flughafen - Betriebs Kompanie (K)
Lehr - Geschwader
(25-1-1943 - 31-7-1943)
3. Flughafen - Betriebs Kompanie
Kampf - Geschwader 6
I would say the history of this helmet speaks for the condition.
Further information on Mahl may also be possible with further research from the German archives.
