    Description

    WWI BRITISH MARK I Helmet Doughboy Infantry U.S Soldier's Named Address Hometown
    Stamped HS on inside lip.
    NO LINER NO CHIN STRAP
    Helmet has what appears to be a bullet ding on the top. Signed Name, Address and Hometown on inside of helmet. See pics
    Based on the chin strap bails I believe this to be a British manufactured MARK I Helmet. The U.S. Manufactured M1917 or P17 has stronger rivets than the split rivet on a MARK I.
    Here is a link which shows differences in the 2 styles which are extremely similar.
