Single, early-period (ie. 'M36-pattern and/or pointed-styled), WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', EM-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: 'Soldat einer Panzer-Versuchs-Abtlgs.'

This is a truly attractive - very desirable albeit regrettably single but nevertheless exceedingly rarely found! - example of an early-period (ie. 'M36-pattern and/or pointed-styled and as per regulation non-piped), WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Soldat u. Mitglied einer Panzer-Versuchs-Abtleilungs' (or: simple soldier who served within a specific tank training- and/or experimental unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. just minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat strap - which is executed in the darker-green-coloured wool as to be expected - is void of any piping and is of the generic-pattern as per regulation. The neat strap measures approximately 11 cms. in length and comes naturally mounted onto its original tongue. It shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'), Gothic-styled: 'V'-cypher (or: 'Ziffer') attached (which is executed in the bright-pink- ie. 'rosatoter'-coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected). The strap - which is of the typical 'standard-issued'-pattern - shows as stated above only minimal usage and wear (just some minimal age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present). It should be noted that ALL 'cyphered', enlisted-mens'-pattern, 'Panzer-Versuchs-Abteilungen'-type shoulderstraps can easily be regarded 'exceedingly rare' and come not that often for sale. This particular example originated from a small but wonderful collection of rare 'Panzer'-related shoulderstraps I recently acquired for the web-site. In any case is this a very attractive and early-war-period, 'Heeres-Panzer-Versuchs-Abteilungen'-related, EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat u. Mitglied einer Panzer-Versuchs-Abtleilungs': too bad that it is only a single specimen!
