Brazil / Paulista Revolution Helmet -1932
BRAZIL PAULISTA REVOLUTION RESTORED HELMET. This is one version of 3 versions of a 1932 Brazilian Civil War Paulistas Steel Helmet manufactured in Brazil. Using the design of the French M-15 Helmet and modified to suit the Brazilian Paulistas needs. The main difference is the way the helmet shell is pressed out of one piece of steel instead of being put together from three pieces as the French Helmet was and the other is the air vent on the top of the helmet shell. ThE first version of the Paulistas helmet has an air vent which is pressed into the top of the helmet shell and holes drilled around the protrusion. The second version of this helmet uses the French system where the air vent on the top of the shell is covered by a comb however the comb on the Paulistas helmet is very small compared to the French helmet. The third version is the MK1 brazilian made. This helmet shell is painted olive green , repainted this year. There is no liner. Overall, this helmet shell is in good condition for it’s age and whatever use it may have had in my opinion.
