Attractive - albeit clearly used and regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) 'M43'-pattern, EM-shoulderstrap as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat u. Uffz.-Anwärter eines (Sturm-)Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments'

This is a neat - albeit clearly used and regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type, so-called: 'M43'-pattern shoulderstrap as was piped in the typical bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and with certainty worn by! - a: 'Soldat u. Unteroffizier-Anwärter eines (Sturm)-Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments' (or: simple soldier and junior-sergeant-candidate who served within a motorised artillery-unit) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used-, worn- and most certainly carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The attractive strap - which measures approximately 11 cms. sized in length as more often encountered - has the 'standard-type'- and/or typical field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and shows the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured and/or desirable 'silk-like'-type branchcolour ie. piping, attached. Moreover, does it show a single 'Lasche' (firmly) attached (constructed from 'dotted'-pattern NCO-braid) denoting that the soldier who wore this piece was an: 'Unteroffizier-Anwärter' (as can be noticed on the pictures). The strap was just moderately used- and/or worn and does show some moderate staining and/or age simply caused by moderate wear and/or decades of storage (as can be seen on the pictures). It comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongue and came with a pebbled button attached. This neat strap originates from a private-household in Germany and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply an attractive shoulderstrap that belonged to a: 'Soldat u. Unteroffizier-Anwärter eines (Sturm)-Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments': too bad that it is only a single specimen!
