Single - and actually not that often seen! - WH (Heeres) NCO-type (ie. 'M36-/M40'-pattern- and/or: 'rounded styled-') neatly 'cyphered' shoulderstrap as was intended for usage by an: 'Unteroffizier des Infanterie-Regiments 39'

This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, so-called: 'M36-/M40'-pattern- (rounded-styled) neatly 'cyphered'- and white- (ie. 'weisser'-) piped NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizier des Infanterie-Regiments 39' (or: junior-sergeant and NCO who served within the army infantry unit ie. regiment numbered: '39') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 10,7 cms. sized in length - has the 'standard-type'- and/or darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- (and 'rayon'-type) piping attached. The strap shows the neat (hand-embroidered) so-called: '3'- and/or: '9'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern' or numerals). Both 'cyphers' are executed in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured linnen as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). Next to this, the strap shows the silverish-grey-coloured, non-sub-dued-pattern) NCO-braid period-attached denoting the 'Unteroffizier'-status. The strap - which never had a tongue attached and that was intended for 'sew-in'-usage - came with a smaller-sized (pebbled-style- and silver-toned) pip attached and shows as stated above only moderate usage and/or wear. It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can easily be regarded 'fairly scarce'. Simply an attractive and/or: early-war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap that was intended for usage by an: 'Unteroffizier des Infanterie-Regiments 39'!
