1939 Army Issue Solar Topee Tropical Helmet

A superb condition 1939 dated army issue Solar Pith Topee, the helmets khaki drill fabric retains good strong colour and has not faded (photos taken in bright sunlight), inside the dome is a well detailed paper label from the Calcutta based manufacturer along with a broad arrow acceptance stamp, an additional small label states the size as 7 1/8th.
Best example that I have encountered in a quite a while and more than likely worn by an officer, couple of minute blemishes but hardly noticeable.
Please note that the storage tin is not part of the sale, for display purposes only.
Sorry UK sale only.
ON HOLD for R.G
