Superb - and/or fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres), 'M40'- (ie. 'M43'-) pattern, NCO-type shoulderstraps having a rarely seen pair of regimental-indicator 'slip-ons' period-attached as was intended for a: 'Feldwebel eines (Nebel)Werfer-Rgts...

This is a very attractive - and as such actually very scarcely encountered! - fully matching pair of (I deem) early- (ie. mid-) war-period- ie. 'M40'- (ie. 'M43'-) pattern WH (Heeres) ie. '(Nebel)Werfer'-related, NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the neat darker-purple-red- (ie. 'bordeaux-roter'-) coloured branchcolour and having a rarely seen pair of red-coloured- and/or linnen-based so-called: regimental-indicator 'slip-ons' (ie. 'Überschuben') period-attached as was intended for - and most certainly worn by! - a: 'Feldwebel eines (Nebel)Werfer-Regiments' (or: sergeant who served within an army smoke-troops unit ie. regiment) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used- and/or worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which measure approximately 10,3 cms. in length each - come naturally mounted onto their original tongues (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair was (I deem) just moderately used ie. worn: the set comes as found and/or stored for decades and is just a bit dirty and/or stained and shows the obvious signs of having been moderately worn. The pair shows the silverish-grey-coloured (ie. typically somewhat sub-dued) NCO-braid and two (matching, regular-sized- and/or 'Buntmetall'-based) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Feldwebel'. The shoulderstraps - which show the neat and desirable, darker-purple-red- (ie. 'bordeaux-roter'-) coloured and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached - are a typical, 'standard-issued'- ie. NON-privately purchased shoulderstrap-pair. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that these straps show a field-promotion (from 'Unteroffizier' to: 'Feldwebel') somethiing that can be corroborated by the presence of the hand-sewn, horizontal piece of NCO-braid (as can be noticed on the pictures). Simply a very attractive - and rarely seen! pair of early- (ie. mid-) war-period so-called: 'M40'- (ie.'M43'-) pattern NCO-type-shoulderstraps as was intended for - and worn by! - a: 'Feldwebel eines (Nebel)Werfer-Regiments': I deem that this attractive pair is accordingly priced (especially taken into account the presence of the rarely seen so-called: 'regimental-indicator-slip-ons'!).
