Superb - albeit minimally mis-matched! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. mid-) war-period so-called: 'M41/M43'-styled, NCO-type 'cyphered' shoulderstraps for usage by an: 'Oberwachtmeister der Art.-Truppen u. Mitglied einer Artillerieschule'

This is a truly atttractive - albeit mininally mismatched but most certainly worn as such! - pair of WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-) war-period so-called: 'M41/M43'-styled, NCO-type 'cyphered' shoulderstraps as piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by - and clearly used by! - an: 'Oberwachtmeister der Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Artillerieschule' (or: sergeant first-class and presumably trainer who served within an artillery-related school) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The neat straps - which have the 'standard'-pattern, field-grey-coloured and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' - have the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured (and desirable!) 'silk-like'-type-piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps each measure approximately 11 cms. in length and are almost matching in style and/or execution: they are a typical, 'standard-issued'-pair that was always together. The straps (which come mounted onto their functional tongues) have the 'standard'-pattern and/or bluish-grey-coloured (ie. sub-dued) WH 'Heeres'-type NCO-braid attached: furthermore, does the pair show two pairs of identical (smaller-sized- and/or zinc-based) pips and a neat (smaller-sized, matching and/or 'Buntmetall'-based) so-called: 'S'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern') period-attached, denoting that the NCO who wore this set was an NCO ie. 'Oberwachtmeister o. Oberfeldwebel der Artillerie-Truppen u. Mitglied einer Artillerieschule'. All six devices show some minimal wear ie. are minimally tarnished. The pair itsself was just moderately used and/or worn and shows the evident age, wear and/or staining as to be expected. Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive - and with certainty desirable! - NCO-type, 'Artillerie'-related shoulderstrap-pair that belonged to an: 'Oberwachtmeister der Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Artillerieschule'!
