Grey,
I am pretty sure that this is a dummied-up - ahh erh, I mean - a reworked WWII vintage Japanese civilian defense helmet. Take a look at Nakada's only volu on Japanese militaria page 229, number 1014 for exactly the same pot but with out the "shikoro." Hinky, I think! pbleed |
eeeeeeeem
Pretty much what I suspected, thanks for the reply.
