Superb - and fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-) war-period- (ie. 'M36 o.40'-pattern) 'cyphered' NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for - and worn by! - a: 'Feldwebel des Wachbatallions Berlin'
This is a truly very attractive - fully matching and with certainty rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-) war period- (ie. 'M36- o. 40'-pattern) and neatly 'cyphered' NCO-type shoulderstraps (ie. 'Schulterstücke für Unteroffiziere des Heeres') as piped in the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for - and worn by! - a: 'Feldwebel des Wachbatallions Berlin' (or: sergeant- and/or infantry-NCO who served within the famous guard-batallion based in the town Berlin) and that comes in an overall very nice- (and only moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The neat straps - which have the 'standard'-pattern, darker-green-coloured and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' are textbook in all facets. They show the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- (and/or: woolen-type) piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps which measure approximately 10,4 cms. in length each come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues and come of course in a very nice condition, overall. The shoulderstraps show a matching pair of - I deem - aluminium-based so-called: 'W'-cyphers (and equally styled- and/or regular-sized-) pips attached. Moreover, does the pair show the 'standard'-type, silverish-grey-coloured NCO-braid attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie. sergeant). The straps show - as stated above - only moderate usage ie. wear (some age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present as can be seen on the pictures). This rare pair originated from an older and larger cloth- ie. insignia-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. I deem this a superb occasion to acquire a very attractive and most certainly desirable NCO-type, 'Infanterie'- ie. 'Wachbatallion Berlin'-related shoulderstrap-pair: only the second such rare NCO-type pair in this particular rank ie. format that I have ever had on offer!
