Original Imperial Japanese Army WWII Type 90 Civil Defense Helmet with Badge & Kanji on Rear - Partial Liner & Chinstrap

Original Item: Only One Available. This is an extremely rare Type 90 Civil defense helmet, complete with an intact woven cloth liner. The Japanese WWII Civil Defense helmet was the final of four variations of the Type 90 Army helmet and was designed specifically for mainland civil defense. This example has an interesting badge that we’ve been unable to identify. 

Overall condition is very good with correct brown paint, with some overall oxidation on the exterior. The front has a badge applied but we haven’t been able to identify it. There is some overall scuffing, but no dents or any major damage. There is some Kanji painted on the back that we couldn’t translate. 

The liner is detached from one side and shows some heavy wear, and the chinstrap is retained but in similar condition.

This is an excellent opportunity to pick up a WWII issue type 90 civil defense helmet, a necessity for any Japanese WWII headgear collection.
