This is a very rusted helmet for Firefighter, made in France in 1920.
I found this helmet at flea market, cost me 20 euro.
As you can see is in a very bad condition, i think is better to restore it than to leave rust eat the metal. I am a not a profesionist to restoration so this is why i buy cheap stuff to restore, like that i gather knowledge.
I hope you like it.
Napoleon Bonaparte reordered the various fire fighting organisation in Paris (and later other cities) into a unit of the French Army called the Sapeurs-pompiers.This style of helmet was widely copied across Europe and beyond.

  • Hi from England The helmet itself is the "Adrian" pattern...first issued to French soldiers in 1915... Hence the official designation "M1915"... The colour was matched with the rest of the new uniform issued to French soldiers: Horizon blue. Happen these were possibly Army surplus...pressed into service as firefighters helmets after WW1... A little (probably pointless) piece of history.... Take it or leave it... With thanks Glenn GLMelectrical Leeds UK

    • It's actually a post ww1 M26 Adrian. Principle difference is that the m15 was of 4 piece construction and the m26 2 piece. This example was almost certainly always in use with the fire service, as military examples had two slots cut in the front for attaching the arm of service badge, where as this one has a round hole.

    • not exactly, the adrian helmet followed the design of the firefighters helmet which this one is clearly and example of, due to the lack of fixation for the army attributes, the liner fixation and the air passages in the top of the helmet, also firefighter helmets were polished and if it was a repurposed army helmet, there would hav e been traces of the old paint under the crest, which were clearly absent from this one official designation never used year for the army helmets the early one were simply known as "helmet of the universal model" and the later referenced as "helmet of the new model", the M1915 and M1926 designation are made by the collectionners

    • It's a M26(produced from 1926) that was used during ww2, the improved version of the M15 that was used during ww1. These were often also distibuted to non-military services like the civil protection, the passive defense, firefighters,...and the French police used it till the 1970's. The main difference is that the actual helmet (without the upper part) of the M15 was constructed out of multiple pieces that were riveted together and the outside of the M26 was made out of 1 piece. You can see this at the side of the helmet where the M26 has 2 horizontal rivets to attach the inside and the M15 has a vertical line and two small vertical rivets (because two of the parts are attached here).

    • Museum methods? Any museum with a good conservation department would simply do a basic cleaning to prevent further deterioration and stick to the rule "do nothing that can not be undone". As there were literally millions of them made and used by many countries for decades a mint condition Adrian can be easily found for not much money. As a museum professional for over 50 years you can take my word on that.

  • I thought the helmet color would be red, the firefighters pattern color . Then I saw that color was the helmet pattern. And I also thought you were going to put that "web-thing", like inside of the army helmets. I have a tip, if not boldness on my part: Whenever you are doing small works (10:50), show the "before and after" in the video, with the split screen, near the object. This will show you the minuscule work with more attention. Good luck and much more videos in 2019!

    • Your comment is fascinating, Lucimar Alves,- and something I'm definitely going to look up later. But even tho you quoted me in my "quantity over quality", your comment really has nothing to do with it, instead it's tackling the idea of the helmet being " THE HELMETS DIDNT EVEN HELP". Also an interesting topic, but I can't see how it has anything to do with 'Quantity over Quality'. 🤔 I'm thankful for you spending your time on me and my comment - that is very nice of you- you forgot to switch off capital letters tho, that made you sound rather rude,- I would advise you to look out for that next time you type. 😊 - Bookworm

      @CatchBurning@CatchBurning5 жыл бұрын
    • I mean unfortunately however you look at it, regardless of the manneurism they chose to deliver it in, yes their comment in a way does pertain to the idea of quality over quantity. Helmets of this fashion were never originally designed to be used in the firefighting profession. They were mass-produced in the millions originally to function in shrapnel protection for soldiers and aren't nearly as specialized or effective as helmets today are made. Just because something lasts longer over time does not inherently make it of higher quality than something else, only if partly or wholely of its intended purpose IS to last long. I encourage you to watch a video that details how modern day firefighter helmets are made because from the way you speak it comes across as though you believe they're somehow cheap plastic products spit out of an assembly line, and it really does do a disservice to the people who put time and effort into manufacturing them to ensure the men and women utilizing them have the best protection possible.

  • Описание на русском: Это сильно заржавевший шлем для пожарного, сделанный во Франции в 1920 году. Я нашел этот шлем на блошином рынке, стоил мне 20 евро. Как вы видите, он находится в очень плохом состоянии, и я думаю, что лучше его восстановить, чем оставлять ржавчину на металле. Я не профессиональный реставратор, поэтому я покупаю дешевые вещи для восстановления чтобы накопить опыт. Я надеюсь тебе понравится. Наполеон Бонапарт реорганизовал различные организации пожаротушения в Париже (а затем и в других городах) в подразделение французской армии под названием Sapeurs-pompiers (Пожарная охрана). Стиль их шлема был широко скопирован в Европе и за ее пределами.

For a prop or showpiece, I think painting is good enough, but if you really want to restore the original look of the piece, re-chroming is the only option for chromed metal pieces. Good job on the helmet otherwise, for what you had to work with!
