Original Item: Made surplus some years ago these are the current issue Bobby helmets from the UK region of South Wales. Each Bobby Helmet comes complete with liner, chinstrap, and while it has been issued, is in excellent collectible condition.
The helmet silhouette often referred to as a comb top and bears the Prince of Wales Feathers in the center of the red and blue enamel helmet plate. Now withdrawn from government sale, for security reasons, these Bobby Helmets have become extremely scarce.
Sizes vary and liners are somewhat adjustable, most fit US sizes 7 to 7 3/8.
South Wales (Welsh: De Cymru) is the region of Wales bordered by England and the Bristol Channel to the east and south, and Mid Wales and West Wales to the north and west. The most densely populated region in the southwest of the United Kingdom, it is home to around 2.2 million people. The region contains almost three-quarters of the population of Wales, including the capital city of Cardiff (population approximately 350,000), as well as Swansea and Newport, with populations approximately 240,000 and 150,000 respectively. The Brecon Beacons national park covers about a third of South Wales, containing Pen y Fan, the highest mountain south of Snowdonia.
