Early- (ie. pre-) war-period, WH (Heeres) 'M36'-pattern (pointed-styled) 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for an: 'Uffz. u. Mitglied des Art.-Beobachtungs-Abtlgs. 31'

This is a very attractive - matching and as such actually very scarcely encountered! - pair of early- (ie. pre-war-) period, WH (Heeres), so-called: 'M36'-type (pointed-style) and neatly 'cyphered' (and as per regulation non-piped!) NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for - and with certainty worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizier u. Mitglied des Art.-Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 31' (or: NCO and junior-sergeant who served within a specific, artillery-observers' unit, numbered: '31') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The neat shoulderstraps have the darker-green-coloured and/or (smooth) woolen-based 'upperdecks' as to be expected and come mounted onto their period tongues attached. The straps show the (typical) silver-toned NCO-braid attached and measure approximately 10,5 (ie. 11) cms. in length each and show the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'), Gothic-styled: 'B'- and/or: '3'- and/or: '1'-numerals (ie. cyphers or: 'Ziffern') attached which are executed in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured wool as to be expected. The straps shows some moderate age and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible- ie. present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-type shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'very scarce'. Simply an attractive and/or early- (ie. pre-) war period, 'cyphered Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair as was intended for an: 'Unteroffizier u. Mitglied des Art.-Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 31': I deem that I have priced this attractive and neatly 'cyphered' pair, accordingly!
