WWII Soviet SSH-36 Helmet – Original Red Star Badge

Offered here is an original SSh‑36 helmet, an early Soviet combat helmet used by the Red Army during the early years of World War II. Introduced in 1936, the SSH-36 was one of the first modern steel helmets adopted by the Soviet Union and saw service in several early wartime campaigns.
This example is described as original and retains the distinctive front red star badge, a feature that is rarely found intact today. Helmets that still display their original star emblem are considered particularly scarce, as many were removed, damaged, or lost during wartime use and the decades that followed.
The SSH-36 is recognized by its characteristic design with prominent ventilation comb and unique silhouette, making it one of the most identifiable Soviet helmets from the pre-war and early WWII period.
According to a Finnish helmet collector, this piece was noted as one of the finest examples encountered, highlighting its exceptional preservation and appeal within militaria collecting circles.
Due to its early production period and the survival of the original star insignia, this helmet represents a rare collector’s piece suitable for advanced WWII militaria collections, historical research, or museum display.
