Looking for information on this Fireman's Helmet....

[Old and Retired]

Hello Friends,

Many of you have very kindly helped me identify a few other helmets I have posted earlier this month but more information on this one still eludes me. In my searches I have found others very similar but none with the same badge and my curiosity grows.

There is no marking on the reverse side of the badge. Perhaps it is not even authentic and just a pieced together artifact
to attract collectors who have little knowledge like me?

Coert felt it may be a fireman's helmet and after looking at others like it online I can see why. I am just taking this opportunity to repost it in case someone else may have additional information pertaining to it.

As always, you have my warmest appreciation for any input you may have!

All the best!

A fireman's helmet used up to and possibly after WW2! The L could be Leipzig or some tiny village beginning with L. Rob

Interesting! Thank you! I am going to search Leipzig helmets to see if I can find more. Appreciate the thought very much!

I hope you find something. I searched for about twenty or so minutes yesterday and could not find anything. I also tried searching for fire departments of that era but couldn't find a list or anything. Regardless it's a nice helmet.

Thank you very much for trying! I really appreciate your efforts. I have come up empty on this myself.

Best!

Wow! That's a lot of municipalities. I think I am going to be happy just describing this helmet as an "Early 20th Century German Fireman's Helmet"
