What do you think about this helmet. Is it for a pilot or for a paratropper ?
It is marked "Intreprinderea de pielarie si marochinarie" Sebes "Caprioara"

Do you think this helmet could be a tanker one. They are quite the same as you can see in this era photo.

This might be a 1930s model for pilots (military and civilian) for early type of airplanes, as it hasn’t head phones. Or it could be a motorcyclist or glider pilot helmet of the 1940s and 1950s.
Definitely, this helmet is not from WW1.

Hello,

Is that button I see on the helmet (right side, orange) made from plastic?
