Single, WH (Heeres) 'M41 o. M43'-pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap: 'Feldwebel u. Offiziers-Anwärter eines Panzer-Grenadier Rgts.'

This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless quite scarcely seen! - (I deem) early- (ie. mid-war-) period, so-called: 'M41 o. M43'-pattern, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstrap as was piped in the bright-green- (ie. 'wiesengrüner'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for an NCO ie.: 'Feldwebel u. Offiziers-Anwärter eines Panzer-Grenadier Regiments' (or NCO ie. sergeant and officers'-candidate who served within an infantry-related rifle unit ie. regiment) and that comes in an overall nice- (I deem clearly issued- and/or: just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 12 cms. in length as more often seen - has the desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as is more encountered with these early- (ie. mid-war-) period shoulderstraps). The shoulderstrap - which originates from a larger cloth- and insignia-collection I recently acquired for the web-site - shows the silverish-toned (ie. non-sub-dued) NCO-braid, a regular-sized (zinc-based) pip as well as a (double and nicely constructed!) 'Anwärter-Lasche' (ie. loop) period-attached: it misses, however, its tongue (as can be noticed on the pictures). Simply an attractive - and/or fully 'text-book'! - 'M41- o. M43'-pattern, NCO-type 'Panzer-Grenadiere'-related shoulderstrap that was intended for usage by a: 'Feldwebel u. Offiziers-Anwärter eines Panzer-Grenadier Rgts.'!
