This is the standard summer issue flight helmet with bill. The chin strap and goggle retention straps are present as well as the snaps. The interior is hand marked in ink "W/R/AVE." Includes a period skull cap and period tinted goggles. Provenance: The Putnam Green/Sycamore Collection

Fine, showing typical wear and slight resizing during the period of use. The faded skull cap is good with repairs. The goggles are fair with heavily aged tint on one of the lenses. A classic World War I U.S. Army Air Service leather flight helmet with authentic use.
