This is an Original Bulgarian Firefighter's helmet, model from 1930- 40s.
These were the helmets used by the Royal Fire forces in the 1940s during the WWII. After the war, in '50s the new communist rule used the same helmets - only the insignia at front was changed. The royal metal badge -emblem was replaced by the communist five-pointed star with pick-spade crossed with a nozzle.
