Attractive - and/or fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres) 'cyphered' officers'-type shoulderboards as piped in the bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for an: 'Oberstleutnant des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 22'

The neat WH (Heeres) shoulderboards are 'text-book'-examples of the typical Heeres'-type, 'Panzer'-related shoulderboards and have the silverish-grey- (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued'-type) 'upperdecks': they are just moderately used- ie. worn and show some minimal age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The boards show the desirable bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour (and were constructed from the 'smooth-type' wool as to be expected). The boards never had any tongues and were with certainty intended to be used as a pair of the 'sew-in'-type. The boards measure approximately 10,5 cms. in length each and were clearly worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair shows a matching set of (neatly golden-toned, regular-sized- and/or fully identical) Gothic-styled: 'P'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern'), a pair of '2'-numerals and two (equally-styled) pips period-attached denoting that the high-ranked officer (ie. 'Oberstleutnant' or lieutnant-colonel) who was issued this pair, served within (ie. possibly commanded!) a: 'Panzerjäger-Abteilung' (ie. anti-tank- or tank-destroyer-unit). All eight devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny) age-patina. Taking into account the fact that the set has silverish-grey- (ie. somewhat 'subdued'-type-) 'upperdecks' I deem that it was a pair that was used on a regular 'front-used' tunic (and not a 'Waffenrock' or dress-tunic). It should be mentioned that these neatly 'cyphered', 'Heeres'-type 'Panzerjäger'-shoulderboards are actually quite hard to come by and can easily be graded 'scarce'. Simply a very attractive shoulderboard-pair that belonged to an: 'Oberstleutnant des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 22'!
