Attractive - and matching! - pair of early-pattern, so-called: 'Allgemeine-HJ' (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstraps as intended for usage by a: 'Kameradschaftsführer' who was attached to the: 'Bann 249' (Bann 249 = 'Bann Christian Croßmann')

This is an attractive - fully matching and actually not that easily found! - pair of beige-brown-toned- and/or early-pattern, so-called: 'Allgemeine-HJ' (ie. general 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstraps as was intended for usage - and most certainly worn by! - a: 'Kameradschaftsführer' who was attached to the (unusually found!): 'Bann 249' (Bann 249 = 'Bann Christian Croßsmann o. Odenwald' as was situated in the 'Gebiet West Hessen-Nassau') and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem just moderately used- ie. carefully tunic- or shirt-removed-), condition. The straps - which are executed in typical, beige-tan-coloured linnen as to be expected - have the bright-red-coloured- (and typical rayon-based) piping attached and show the machine-embroidered - by means of 'Kurbelstickerei' (and/or equally coloured) - so-called: '249'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern'). The straps never had a tongue attached and come as found and/or issued: the pair is of 'sewn-in'-pattern and was once tunic-attached by means of metal snaps (which are still present as can be noticed on the pictures). The straps shows a medium-sized pip each attached (denoting the rank of a: 'Kameradschaftsführer' and measure spproximately 12 cms. in length and do show some minimal age ie. staining simply caused by moderate wear and/or decades of storage (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that all 'cyphered' (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'scarce' even more so when they are of the desirable early-pattern!
