Description
This is an original WWI British Mark I "Brodie" helmet. The helmet's exterior features an original and rather striking brown and green camouflage paint scheme. The helmet's interior brim is marked "BS 10", denoting 1915 production by William Beardmore & Co. Ltd. of Glasgow, Scotland. Its original oil cloth liner and leather chinstrap are still present, and the chinstrap loops are secured by split rivets.

Condition Report
For being well over 100 years old, this helmet is in fair condition. The exterior's paint is exceptional; however, the interior's leather components show signs of damage and deterioration.
