Original U.S. WWI M1917 Doughboy Helmet Shell with Panel Camouflage Paint Martini-Henry Rifles earned with "the airborne" inOriginal Item: One of a kind. This is a fantastic genuine Great War hand painted camouflage helmet, with remnants of the original liner. The helmet features textured original period colored panel camouflage paint in a multitude of colors, including yellow, white, orange, green, blue, and various other shades. The paint is a bit worn, and definitely shows use, but it has a great look and the colors are still easily discernible, with a lovely patina.
