See Tomb of the Cybermen, with Patrick Troughton as the Doctor. Apologies for worrying level of knowledge of a sci-fi TV programme! Best regards Ruth This is an email sent via the SHCG List.

The opening is on the back and fits over the entire head. It appears to be made of spare tyre rubber and metal parts with tubes.
