Revision #4 of my book GERMAN HELMET LOT NUMBERS 1935-1945 ONGOING RESEARCH is now available on Ebay (item# 321090511887).
There are about 12,500 lot number entries listed that cover M35, M40, M42, M38 and Beaded helmets. ET/CKL, SE/hkp, Quist, NS, and EF helmet factories are listed in addition to a section on qvL/bvL helmets.
The book is 8.5 X 11 paperback format and 460 pages (about 1" thick).
The book is helpful in tracking factory decal drops and many decal types are listed. DD, SD, and no decal helmets are tracked from the M35 era, through the M40 era, and into the M42 no-decal era.
There are NO photos in this book. It is a text only listing with my own comments on each each factory section.
More SS decals specifically are found in Revision-4 such as the ET, Q, and EF factory SS decals in addition to some rare fat runes decals and CA Pochers.
Factory ET M35 SS helmets along with the Black parade reissues and finally the Green/Black/Green reissues for combat duty.
A historic SS-VT helmet named to SS Obergruppenfuhrer Karl Frank, Reich Minister for Bohemia and Moravia is featured. The black parade finish was covered with a smooth medium gray paint with Pocher decals masked off.
