Soviet 1941 model blockaded Leningrad issue steel helmet, British MK1 helmet's type, but of course not the same. Used by paramilitary troops like anti-aircraft defense and militia units, but at the same time there are many period photos where the helmet could be seen worn by combat units also. Also same helmets were often found at the battlefield positions near Leningrad. Very nice completed condition.
