“Big White Helmet” used by US Civil Defence departments from 1941 – 1945. This specimen bears the logo of the Air Raid Warden. No marking except for an impression of Mc in an oval shape, presumably McDonald Company of Los Angeles, a maker of hard hats, possibly McCord. Shell and decal in very good condition. Liner is a very lightweight webbing and shows use, wear and tear. All original US home front item.
