United Kingdom. A Type C Flying Helmet with a Pair of MK VIII Goggles GTRexclude the obverse depicting a rightwardAcquired together locally, the Type C Flying Helmet is a fine wartime example which is an early internally wired example and still retains its original receivers and wiring loom.

The interior is worn as one would expect with signs of use and the exterior also shows signs of age. A.
