Can anyone identify the origin of this vintage leather flying helmet?
It belonged to retired Bombardier from Maine, New England, who was in the US Air Corp during WWII.
No labels or size info.
Any help would be appreciated – Thanks, Paul

Looks like a WW1 flying helmet, with rabbit fur…..

Paul, I don’t know, I would send a PM to Daniel, that’s his username, he is in Australia, but he has an extensive collection and website on flying gear.
