Information from the German Helmets website:
"Light weight helmets were manufactured in both aluminum and a fiber composite material and were available to officers on a private purchase basis for ceremonial and parade use. Generally speaking, older men often chose to purchase these light weigh models as opposed to wear the standard combat helmet. Fiber parade helmets came in several different patterns...
"...the firm of Robert Lubstein [is] better known as the "Erel" firm for those who collect visor caps. The Erel firm was considered a premier manufacturer of superb quality visor hats and fiber parade helmets, and as such sold them directly as well as through authorized uniform dealers. Many officers had direct access to suppliers stationed locally near their military base, much to the same degree that modern soldiers have access to similar base supply stores."
