0920 |
Fire helmet from Sweden. The Vulcan fiber helmet dates from around 1930. For more information on this helmet, see helmet number 0377 and 0871, Germany - Weimar Republic.
The black helmet is almost as heavy as the steel helmets of that time. The surface of the helmet is painted inside and outside. For protection, the edge was provided with a bezel made of brass. The inner helmet made of leather was attached to 3 points on the helmet bowl. The chin strap made of leather has a two-point attachment. A neck leather could not be attached. Neck leathers were not common in Sweden. The head impact plate is very solid, it fills almost the entire area above the inner helmet. On the inner helmet is the badge of the company Robert Lubstein Berlin attached. The stamp indicates the following: DRGM - EREL - FIBER HELMET. EREL stands for the initials of Robert Lubstein (eReL). Instead of an aluminum comb here is a brass comb with a broad base attached. In addition, additional slide rails are attached. The chinscale, outside mounted with lion head rosettes, has only symbolic meaning. At the front there is a brass badge. It shows a Gardestern. In this middle, a fire brigade emblem was placed.
