Pair of WH (Heeres) EM-type (ie. 'M40'-pattern) neatly 'cyphered' shoulderstraps as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat einer Infanterie Lehr-Bataillons o. Rgts.'

This is an attractive - fully matching, very desirable and actually not that easily found! - pair of WH (Heeres) early- (ie. evt. pre-) war-period, so-called: 'M40'-pattern and neatly 'cyphered', enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as piped in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for - and clearly worn by! - a: 'Soldat einer Infanterie Lehr-Bataillons o. Regiments' (or: private who served within an army-infantry training ie. instruction battalion or regiment) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which are approximately 11,5 cms. sized in length each - do show the darker-green-coloured- and/or (smooth) woolen-based 'upperdecks' and show the neat (white-toned, Gothic-styled and/or regular-sized) so-called: 'L'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern') attached (which cyphers are executed in typical 'Kurbelstickerei' as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which never had any tongues attached and that were clearly intended (and used as!) a pair of the 'sew-in'-pattern - do show as stated above only minimal usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). This pair originates from an older shoulderstrap ie. board-collection that I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply a very attractive and/or: early-war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related EM-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat einer Infanterie Lehr-Bataillons o. Regiments'!
