Cardiff City Tramways Cromwell Fiber Helmet.

I have been a lucky boy as this is the second example ive managed to have aquired, the first now resides in a Cardiff museum. The helmet itself is in very nice condition with no cracks or damage to the fiber body, all rivets are tight. The top liner retention screw is the type found on British paratrooper helmets and as you can see from the photos inside and out this screw has always been with the helmet. To the front rim is a clear Cardiff tramways stamp and numbered 297, so at least that number where issued. The inside liner system is sized 7, i cannot find a date but the liner is an early example with top donut ring. Inside shell has a nice clear Cromwell manufacturer paper label pasted to the side. No chinstrap. A scarce helmet to say the least.
