Description

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.

WWII US Army 7th Ranger Bn Scroll – "Phantom Unit" – Cut Edge – Rare Original

Skladem (1 pcs) Brand: G.I.

An exceedingly rare piece of US Special Forces history: The WWII Original Scroll of the 7th Ranger Battalion. Often referred to by collectors as a "Phantom Unit", patches for the 7th Bn were manufactured late in the war in anticipation of the unit's activation, which was ultimately cancelled or short-lived before deployment. Despite the unit's obscure history, the patch features undeniable wartime construction: embroidery on black wool felt with a Cut Edge and a standard "Snowy Back" reverse. Essential for completing a Ranger Scroll collection.

WWII Green Lucky Strike Tin "Flat Fifty" – Normandy Find – Pre-1942 – Relic

Vyprodáno Brand: G.I.

A highly collectible WWII artifact: An original Lucky Strike "Green" Flat Fifty Cigarette Tin. The green packaging is iconic, as the company famously switched to white in 1942, making this a rare pre-war or early-war production piece. This specific tin was found in Normandy, linking it directly to the European Theater of Operations. While the exterior shows "salty" rust and wear consistent with a battlefield relic, the interior remains surprisingly legible with the classic "It's Toasted" slogan and Indian head logo. Dimensions: 11cm x 14cm.
