Superb - regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres), early-war-period (ie. 'M40'-pattern styled) EM-type shoulderstrap for usage by a: 'Soldat eines Inf.-Rgts. der “Grossdeutschland”-Div.'

This is a truly attractive - regrettably single but nevertheless quite rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. mid-) war-period (ie. 'M40'-pattern styled), enlisted-mens'type shoulderstrap as was piped in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Soldat eines Infanterie-Regiments der “Grossdeutschland”-Division' (or: simple soldier ie. private who served within an infantry-related unit within the greater “Grossdeutschland”-Division) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly ie. moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The neat and very desirable shoulderstrap - has the 'standard'-pattern, darker-green-coloured- and/or: woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- and/or woolen-type piping attached. The strap - which measures approximately 11 cms. in length - comes mounted onto its period tongue and comes in a very nice- (ie. fully 'text-book'-) condition, overall. The strap is a clear example of a 'standard-issued'-pattern strap and does show the neat interwoven 'GD'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern'), which are executed in white-coloured, machine-embroidery (as per regulation). The neat strap shows - as stated above - only moderate usage ie. wear (just some moderate age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present). In any case is this a nice occasion to acquire a very attractive and desirable EM-type, 'M40'-pattern, 'Infanterie'-related GD-shoulderstrap: it has been some time that I did offer such a neat “GD“-shoulderstrap!
