Attractive - and fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres) early-war-period- (ie. 'M41'- ie. 'M43'-pattern, 'standard-issued', NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for an: 'Oberwachtmeister eines (Sturm)Art.-Abts. o. Rgts.'

This is a very attractive - and fully matching! - pair of 'standard-issued- (ie. 'non-tailor-made'!) pattern, WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-) war-period- (ie. 'M40'- ie. 'M43'-pattern) NCO-type shoulderstraps (ie. 'Schulterstücke für Unteroffiziere des Heeres') as was piped in the desirable bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberwachtmeister eines (Sturm)Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments' (or: sergeant first-class who served within an artillery unit or regiment) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat straps - which have the 'standard'-pattern, field-grey-coloured and woolen'-based 'upperdecks' and that measure approximately 11,7 cms. in length each - show the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured and/or woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). Both straps show two pairs of fully matching pair of (regular-sized- and/or zinc-based) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Oberwachtmeister o. Oberfeldwebel' (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - that show the typical bluish-grey-toned (ie. 'sub-dued') NCO-braid attached - come naturally mounted onto their period-attached (regular-shaped) tongues attached and come both in a very nice- (ie. fully 'text-book') condition overall (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair only shows minimal wear and/or age and is just very nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem this an excellent occasion to acquire a neat NCO-type, '(Sturm)Artillerie'-related shoulderstrap-pair for a justified price!
