Attractive - and fully matching! - pair of later-war-period, WH (Heeres) so-called: 'M44'-style-, 'simplified', enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was intended for a: 'Soldat der (Sturm)Artillerie-Truppen'
This is an attractive - fully matching and in this particular branchcolour very scarcely encountered! - pair of later-war-period, WH (Heeres) so-called: 'M44'-styled, 'simplified' enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for a: 'Soldat der (Sturm)Artillerie-Truppen' (or: simple soldier who served within an artillery regiment or unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. hardly used- ie. 'virtually mint'-), condition. The straps - which are approximately 11 cms. sized in length each - have the 'standard-pattern'- and/or typical, field-grey-coloured and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' and/or typical tongues and do show the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured colour and/or: 'silk-like'-type branchcolour (ie. piping) attached. The straps are constructed following the typical '1944 cloth-minimising production-manner', using different shades of wool and/or material (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - that came from my private shoulderstrap-collection - show some minimal staining and/or age caused by decades of storage. It should be noted that all 'M44'-style, EM-pattern shoulderstraps are actually quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'scarce': even more so when they are piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a very attractive - and fully 'text-book'! - M44-styled, enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap-pair as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der (Sturm)Artillerie-Truppen': great to complete any later-war M44- (ie. even M43-) model 'Heeres'-tunic!
