Superb - fully matching and rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type, 'cyphered' shoulderboard-pair that belonged to an: 'Oberstleutnant u. Kriegs- o. Oberfeldrichter des Heeres'

This is a truly very attractive - fully matching and truly rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type, neatly 'cyphered' shoulderboard-pair as piped in the rarely seen darker-purple- (ie. 'bordeaux-roter'-) coloured branchcolour that was intended for - and most certainly worn as such by! - an: 'Oberstleutnant u. Kriegs- o. Oberfeldrichter des Heeres' (ie.: judicial officer ie. field-judge with the comparable army-rank of lieutnant-colonel) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly issued, worn and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The boards - that measure 11,4 cms. in length each - have the silver-greyish-coloured- (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued'-) so-called: 'upperdecks' and show a matching pair of the neat (golden-bronze-toned) 'sword'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern') and dito (equally-styled and regular-sized) pips period-attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Oberstleutnant u. Kriegs- o. Oberfeldrichter'. All four devices are just a tiny bit tarnished from normal age and/or storage for decades but are very pronounced and detailed (as can be seen on the pictures). The boards never had any tongues attached (they were most certainly used as a pair of the 'sew-in'-pattern) and do show some obvious wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). This very attractive - and truly rarely encountered! - shoulderboard-pair was recently found at a private-household and came as such straight from the family who kept and stored these items for decades. Simply a very attractive - and with certainty very desirable! - neatly 'cyphered' shoulderboard-pair as executed in one of the most rarely encountered branchcolours of the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht': I deem that I have priced this rare and interesting pair according to its obvious rarity and/or desirabilty!
