Canadian MkIII helmets

[flying pig]

Hey guys. I'd been looking for one of these for a while and hadn't turned up much when I came across this one on ebay. I hadn't been able to find much on them and hadn't really asked around about them, but when this one turned up I decided to take the chance.

It appears to be repainted unless they did them in different colors? I can't find a maker or date stamp on the shell, but with the textured paint I bet it would have been filled. Liner is marked V.M.C. 1945. Late war or maybe post war replacement? Its C^ marked and marked with number 107.

I wound up buying a second one from the fellow a week later, it has the original tan colored paint, netting and a Canadian marked 1945 liner as well. I can't wait to see that one up close, I had to have it too.

How did I do helmet guys?
