    I added this M 42/60 to my collection some time back as I needed to fill a gap in my collection of Parachutist helmets. These were used from 1960 into the 1990's they weigh 1320g and were produced in ten sizes 51-60 and were base painted olive green at the factory... This particular example is well marked and in a size 58 and shows a good amount of wear and patina to the liner and the exterior of the helmet body which is indicative to being field used... I was very fortunate to be able to find a second generation camo cover from a fellow collector in Italy these are extremely hard to source and are nearly always missing the button on removable neck veil
