An exceptionally rare US Army Tanker Helmet from the Korean War era (early 1950s), designated as Type QM1C. Manufactured by the famous Riddell company. This model is considered far rarer than the standard WWII M1938 helmets. It features a hard shell construction inspired by football helmets. A unique find in the massive Size 7 3/4.

Detailed Description: For the advanced Armor collector: The Riddell QM1C Tanker Helmet.

  • Provenance: Produced by Riddell, known for revolutionizing American football helmets. This influence is visible in the helmet's suspension and protective shell design.

  • Rarity: The QM1C is a scarce transitional helmet used during the Korean War period, bridging the gap between the M1938 "football" helmet and the later CVC bonedomes. It is significantly harder to find than WWII models.

  • Size 7 3/4: Finding vintage headgear in this size (approx. 62cm / XL) is nearly impossible. This is a display piece that stands out.

  • Condition: Stock condition (NOS), preserving its historical value.
