Original Imperial German WWI M16 Stahlhelm Helmet Shell with Museum Label - marked T.J.68 Japanese Helmets Overall Length: 8 1/2 inchesOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of a totally original WWI German M16 Helmet shell, with a great look and markings. The original green paint is still well retained inside the shell, with about 60% still present on the exterior, with areas of paint loss and oxidation. It does not look to have been repainted at any time. The entire liner is missing, very common to find on early helmets, as the liner was entirely leather,
