This truly attractive - fully matching, very desirable and just moderately worn- and/or used! - pair of WH (Heeres), NCO-type shoulderstraps (as was specifically intended to be used on the black-coloured, 'wrap-around'-styled Panzer-tunics!) shows the neat bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached and was as such worn by an NCO holding the rank of a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied der Panzer-Truppen' (or: NCO ie. sergeant who served within the army tank-troops). The straps are in all facets a fully 'text-book'- (and I deem early- ie. mid-war-period) pair of NCO-straps that do show the clear signs of having been used and/or worn as such. The shoulderstraps - that measure approx. 10,8 cms. sized in length each as more often encountered - show the (typical) bluish-grey-toned (ie. sub-dued- and/or 'standard'-pattern) NCO-braid and a matching pair of (aluminium-based, regular-sized) pips period-attached and do show some moderate age simply caused by moderate wear and/or usage (of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that both pips were period 'fortified' by means of some hand-stitching as can be noticed on the pictures) . The straps shows the regular-pattern tongues attached and show a (typical) black-coloured 'underlay' (as can be noticed on the pictures). It should be noted that these original, period 'wrap-around'-pattern, NCO-type shoulderstraps can nowadays easily be graded 'very scarce': even more so when they are of the NCO-type and piped in the not that commonly encountered, bright-pink-coloured- (ie. 'Panzer-Truppen'-related-) branchcolour. I deem that this attractive - and fully textbook! - WH (Heeres), NCO-type 'Panzer'-shoulderstrap-pair is with certainty accordingly priced: with certainty one of the nicest such 'truly worn' Panzer-type NCO-straps I had on offer for quite some time!
