Officialy known as the civillian defence helmet, this helmet was designed by professor Zuckerman for use by Fire Watchers and Civil Defence forces. Manufactured from pressed steel with a leather and webbing liner which was attached to the helmet via a chord passed through the helmets surface. This example is in good condition with original paint and liner. The inner rim of the hemet is stamped AMC 6 with a 1941 date and part of the string has become detached from the helmet exterior, but the liner is in very good condition. An example of home front headgear from the blitz period.
