Original Japanese Early 20th Century Hardhat Miners Helmet With WW2 Japanese Style Gauze Liner Flintlock Pistols weighing only 5lbsOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a first for us at IMA. This is an interesting Post WWI era three piece constructed helmet. It appears to be made of a low pressure fiber material, topped with a steel cap, all painted black. There are loops on the rear skirt, the same set up you would see on early fireman's helmets to attach a leather nape protector to. The liner is held in by 3 split pins, with the liner band being what appears to be wicker.
