Moderately worn - albeit regrettably single! - bright-red-piped so-called: 'Allgemeine-HJ'-shoulderstrap as intended for an: 'HJ-Scharführer' who served within the 'Bann 68' (68 = 'Bann Maifeld' situated in the 'Gebiet West Westmark')

This is a neat - regrettably single and just moderately worn - example of a bright-red-piped, so-called: 'Allgemeine'-HJ (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstrap as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'HJ-Scharführer' who served within the 'Bann 68' (68 = 'Bann Maifeld' situated in the 'Gebiet West Westmark') and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. just moderately used- and/or carefully tunic- ie. shirt-removed-), condition. The strap has lost its paper-based so-called: 'RzM'-etiket (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap - which is executed in black-coloured linnen, having red-embroidered '68'-numerals and bright-red-coloured- (and rayon-based) piping attached - comes mounted onto its period tongue as found. The strap measures 11 cms. in length each as is usually encountered and does show some moderate age, wear and/or staining simply caused by decades of storage and fair wear. The strap shows 2 (typical smaller-sized, zinc-based) rank-pips attached denoting the rank of a: 'HJ-Scharführer'. Simply a neat - and actually not that commonly encountered! - so-called: 'Allgemeine-HJ'-shoulderstrap that belonged to an unusally-found 'HJ-Bann' as was based in the 'Gebiet West Westmark'!
