Brodie Helmet Shrapnel Visor - with helmet

An extremely rare experimental shrapnel visor for the Brodie MkII helmet. Steel visor with a gauze inner lining and eye slits. Sprung arms to attach to helmet rim. These visors were developed between the wars,but were unpopular with wearers so never went into volume production. Visor is attached to a British army helmet with green paint inside and out. Small stress crack near central dome bolt. Liner attached with no visible date, size or makers mark but appears to be a size 7. No chinstrap.
