I just realised the possibility of the slots being for strap/thong to hold the helmet in place is stronger. The Italic D, which bears more than a passing resemblance, is secured by tie rings, but the important thing is there are two either side of the base of the skull on the neck guard, not a single one at the very back edge. This matches the Guttmann in function, more or less. The similarities are stronger than I previously thought. Click the link to see what I'm talking about.
