Rare WWII German Belgian tank driver helmet/US American cold weather face mask

  
Here we have an unlikely pairing of a rare WWII era German Belgian? Tanker/tank driver's helmet along with what appears to be a US American cold weather face mask of a similar vintage. In good overall condition, there is some surface oxidation to some of the metal elements to the helmet, such as poppers/buttons, this would carefully clean up with a little time sent and some very fine wire wool.

There is some slight deterioration to the leather elements, but nothing is rotten or falling apart though. Please study the photos carefully as they provide the best description. Where available, please feel free to make a sensible offer above the starting price!

One of a number of similar items that I have listed separately. Although Doohickeys is a relatively new venture, I draw upon many decades of collecting, restoring, researching and obsessing over items of all kinds, from all points in history, finding an interest and importance in almost anything antique or vintage, regardless of it's monetary value. New items will be listed weekly where possible, so please keep checking back regularly as what will be listed is eclectic to say the least, with many items that are very rare, unusual & hard to come by! Please take the time to look at my other listings for some other interesting/rare/delectable bits and message me with any requests!

There's a chance I might already have, or may come by what you're looking for! If you have any questions or queries at all, then please feel free to contact me.

I pride myself in packing all items in the way that I would wish to receive them. Thank you for taking the time to look and good luck if you decide to place.
