Fully matching - and truly rarely seen! - pair of neatly 'cyphered', WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for an: 'Oberwachtmeister der Flak-Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Lehr-Regiments'

This is a truly attractive - and/or fully matching and actually rarely seen! - pair of of neatly 'cyphered', WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and clearly used by! - an: 'Oberwachtmeister der Flak-Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Lehr-Regiments' (or: sergeant first-class and presumably instructor who served within an air-force-related, anti-aircraft training-school or institute) and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. moderately worn- ie. clearly used), condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which measure approximately 11,5 cms. in length each - are constructed from the (smooth-type, ribbed-style linnen ie. wool) and came without tongues and were clearly intended to be used as a pair of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). They are as stated above piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour and have the desirable, rayon-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps show - next to the standard-pattern, silver-toned LW-pattern NCO-braid - a matching pair of the neat (rarely seen, aluminium-based- and/or: 'Gothic'-styled) typical LW-type so-called: 'L'-cyphers and four (I deem zink-based, smaller-sized and equally matching) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Oberwachtmeister o. Oberfeldwebel' (ie. sergeant first-class). The straps show some clear age, wear and/or staining and show some minimal damage (ie. traces of wear at both tops). This pair originated from a private household in Germany where it was found together with the other LW-Flak-Lehr-shoulderstrap pair I offer under nummber #53211: both pairs once belonged to the same 'LW-Flak-Artillerie'-staff-member who wore these pairs and stored them as souvenirs of the period. It should, moreover, also be noted that all 'cyphered' LW-straps are truly very hard to find. Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive - and rarely seen! - NCO-type, LW-shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for - and clearly used by! - an: 'Oberwachtmeister der Flak-Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Lehr-Regiments'!
