The "Electric Strawberry" MP Liner used by the military police unit protecting Marilyn Monroe during her USO tour in Korea.
This is a totally restored original US M1 helmet liner with accessories that has been converted to represent the Korean War M1 infantry model worn by the US Army units during the Korean War. This M1 liner restoration has been conducted with painstaking detail, such as the use of United Carr marked hardware on the liner nape strap and, more importantly, the use of actual shuttle loomed 20/2 mercerized yarn olive drab #3 or #7 HBT suspension webbing. All of which were made on the only functional original WWII era shuttle looms in existence.
At Top Pots, we are not "reproducing" WWII webbing... we are actually remaking it... on three WWII era Saurer Shuttle Looms with the original cams!
