VINTAGE CAIRNS BROS LIEUTENANT RED FIRE DEPARTMENT HELMET CAP

Description

This helmet likely dates from the 1960s or 1970s. Overall the unit is in fair condition. It is quite evident that the helmet was used for many years. Both the interior and the exterior are very dirty and dusty throughout from age and use and could use a good cleaning. Both the interior and the exterior show heavy to very heavy scratching, scuffing, discoloration, staining and wear throughout from age and use, especially on the exterior. The interior is in rough condition. The inner most plastic liner that the cloth is attached to is detached in many places and is in poor condition with heavy cracking, breaks, chipping, flaking, nicking and wear throughout. Ideally this plastic liner should be replaced. Most of the metal components on the interior and the exterior of the helmet show moderate surface rusting throughout. The interior cloth liner is very dirty and dusty throughout and shows heavy discoloration, staining and wear throughout from age and use. The unit appears to be complete but I am not positive, so please inspect the pictures carefully for a better idea of condition and completeness.
