Pair of WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-) war-period- (ie. 'M41 o. M43'-pattern), NCO-type shoulderstraps: 'Oberfeldwebel der Kradschützenbtle. der Pz.Div. u. Inf.Div. (mot)'

This is a truly very attractive - and actually very rarely encountered! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. mid-) war-period- (ie. 'M41 o. M43'-pattern) NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the desirable, copper-brown- (ie. 'kupferbrauner'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for - and I deem just moderately used by! - an: 'Oberfeldwebel der Kradschützenbtle. der Pz.Div. u. Inf.Div. (mot)' (or: NCO and sergeant first-class who served within a tank- ie. infantry-related, motor-cycle unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit just moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The straps - which I deem are of the early- (ie. mid-war-) period ie. so-called: 'M41 o. M43'-pattern - have the field-grey-coloured 'upperdecks' and have the neat, darker-toned, copper-brown- (ie. 'kupferbrauner'-) coloured and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The tongues are naturally also present. The straps - which are regular-sized- and that measure approximately 12 cms. in length each - show the neat, sub-dued- (ie. bluish-grey-coloured- and 'standard'-pattern- ie. 'Heeres-type'-) NCO-braid and two pairs of (silver-toned, zinc-based and regular-sized) pips period-attached denoting the NCO's rank of an: 'Obefeldwebel'. This rarely seen pair originated from an older and extensive shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. As possibly known, is this typical 'kupferbrauner'-branchcolour very rarely seen and can most certainly be regarded as one of the most rarely encountered branchcolours within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht': original NCO-type straps are almost never offered for sale and are missing in most shoulderstrap-collections. The pair on offer here just shows some minimal age, wear and or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive - and fully 'text-book'! - 'Kradschützen'-NCO shoulderstrap-pair that will be very hard to be upgraded!
