Pair of WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstraps: 'Oberfeldwebel eines Sanitäts-Abteilungs'

This is an attractive - fully matching and actually not that easily found! - pair of WH (Heeres) NCO- (ie. 'M41- o. M43'-) type shoulderstraps as piped in the darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for a senior NCO (ie. 'Oberfeldwebel' or: sergeant first-class ie. senior medical-orderly) who served within a: 'Heeres Sanitäts-Abteilung' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately I deem just moderately used ie. worn- and/or most certainly once tunic-attached-), condition. The straps are just moderately used and/or worn and do show some minimal wear, age and/or staining but are void of any damage or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps show the desirable darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured- and/or (desirable!) 'silk-like'-type piping and measure approximately 11 cms. in length each. The pieces show the 'standard'-pattern (somewhat sub-dued) silverish-blue-coloured, NCO-braid attached and come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstraps show four (regular-sized, aluminium-based and fully identical) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Oberfeldwebel' (or: sergeant first-class and/or senior-medical orderly). The pair is constructed from the typical field-grey-coloured wool and is with certainty a: 'standard-issued'-pair. These type of shoulderstraps are of the typical early- ie. mid-war-period pattern straps and were worn in the period around 1941/1943 (and were 'worn-out' even during the rest of the war). This particular pair originated from a larger cloth- ie. 'cyphered'-shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply an attractive - and with certainty desirable! - 'cyphered', 'Sanitäter'-related NCO-type 'Heeres' shoulderstrap-pair: I deem that I priced this attractive pair according to its very nice and fully untouched condition!
