Here's my Civil Defense Helmets. The 1st two are marked for Air Raid Wardens. The last is just a plain factory finish one with no insignia. These are 40's-50's era.
Air Raid Warden with CD decal for that applied to front. Not the best condition, but all original from my middle school's basement.
Air Raid Warden with hand-painted insignia. This one turned up at an antique shop in southern Ohio years ago.
Plain Civil Defense Helmet. This is how most are found and how they came as issued. The decals were added by the local departments or were painted on by the individuals themselves.
