This is an attractive - fully matching and actually quite scarcely found! - pair of WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-) war-period, so-called: 'M41- o. M43'-pattern, NCO-type shoulderstraps having the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizier eines Infanterie-Regiments' (or: NCO ie. junior-sergeant who served within an army-infantry-regiment) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit just moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which measure approximately 11 cms. in length each - have the 'standard-type'- and/or field-grey-coloured, woolen-based 'upperdecks'. The straps - which have the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured and/or woolen-type piping attached - show the (unusually seen!) somewhat beige-coloured (ie. minimally 'sub-dued') NCO-braid attached denoting the rank ie. function of an: 'Unteroffizier'. The straps - which came naturally mounted onto their functional tongues - show as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). This neat pair originates from a private-household in Germany and was never before in collector-hands. Simply an attractive and/or: early- ie. mid-war-period, 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by an: 'Unteroffizier eines Infanterie-Regiments'!
