Neat - and fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres), pre- ie. early-war period- (ie. 'M40'-pattern, rounded-styled) typical 'standard-issued' NCO-type shoulderstraps as intended for an: 'Unteroffizier der Infanterie-Trpn.'

The neat- and clearly used and/or worn! - typical 'standard-issued' (ie. I deem non 'tailor-made'!) 'M40'-pattern pair of WH (Heeres), NCO-type shoulderstraps as was piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and that was as such as intended for - and most certainly worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizier der Infanterie-Truppen' (or: junior-sergeant who served within an army-infantry'-related, unit) and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved- (albeit clearly used- ie. worn-), condition. The pair is just moderately used- ie. worn as such and shows some minimal wear, age and/or staining. The 'text-book' Heeres shoulderstraps measure approximately 10,6 cms. in length each and have the woolen-type piping attached as is more often encountered with these early-war-period shoulderstrap-pairs. The shoulderstraps have the darker-green-coloured- and/or (smooth) woolen-based 'upperdecks' and come mounted onto their functional tongues and have the neat 'standard'-type, silverish-coloured- (ie. non-'sub-dued') and/or: 'Heeres'-type NCO-braid period-attached (as can be noticed on the pictures). This particular pair once had once the (most certainly white-coloured) '5'- and/or '2'-'cyphers' (ie. 'Ziffern') attached which were obligatory (as per regulation) period-removed (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a neat - and with certainty desirable! - 'Infanterie'-related and formerly 'cyphered'! - EM-type shoulderstrap-pair: I deem that I priced this pair according to its nice and fully untouched, condition!
