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.

bro, you could’ve at least added it was used in WWI and some WWII

@legomangamesnetwork1151 3 года назад

@remivollebergh3261 3 года назад

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).

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

@tomshepard8473 5 лет назад

Adrian > Brodie

@emoxon 5 лет назад

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.

@foxknapp2199 5 лет назад

The adrian helmet took its design from firefighter helmets

@quentintin1 5 лет назад

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

LOL everyone has their own little bits of criticism on "how it should have been done" but he honestly did a pretty good job, not museum restoration but it wasn't really meant to be. In the end it turned out looking amazing, it would have been cool if the lining was redone as well but its understandable not to given how corroded the lining fasteners had become.

@jeffk3570 5 лет назад

@FocusFanatic In the case of something like this no. The helmet isnt really that rare or old, no mystery to how it was made, what its made of, or who made it. Restoring it like this most likely makes it more valuable as a display piece.

@memikell 5 лет назад

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.

Two products I urge you to look into: evaporust and bar keeper’s friend. I’ve worked with anything from American Civil War to modern at a military museum. These are used more than anything else, they work best, and they’re the least destructive.

@Desi365 5 лет назад

evaporust is available here in continental Europe but at an outrageous price. Like 6 or 7 times the US price. Dunno why. No need of further explanation.

@vortecmacs 5 лет назад

Desi it depends on how much you do or don’t want to damage the artifact. In lieu of that I’d recommend electrolysis as long as the metals aren’t dissimilar.

@netmatrix75 5 лет назад

I would love to use Evaporust to restore some small car parts and uniform badges. But they are way way too costly to be imported to Asia. The option i have now is to use vinegar,wires brush and patience.

Now a days it seems like our stuff are not made to last more than few years, but this helmet is almost a hundred years old! Now that's good quality too bad good quality has gone a bit out of fashion and people have chosen quantity over quality. At least, That's what It looks like from my point of view. Beautiful video btw. 🙂

@lucimaralves490 5 лет назад

>quantity over quality SIS THE HELMETS DIDNT EVEN HELP THE FIREFIGHTERS. THEY ONLY PROTECTED THE FOREHEAD, AND THE REST OF THE HEAD WAS PRONE FOR FIRES.

@CatchBurning 5 лет назад

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

@theandice8152 5 лет назад

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.

keep in mind that firefighters in 1920's didint have the uniforms do get into the fire,so their main concern would be burning chunks of wood falling.

Why would a firefighter wear a metal helmet? I need to understand this. Wouldn't it get extremely hot in a fire? Is this a dumb question?

@jgespana866 5 лет назад

It was 1920 mate, I believe it was more a protection in case something was dropping on your head. But other than that, any other material under great temperature will have trouble so it's not worse to have metal than anything else.

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.
