Superb - fully matching and I deem hardly used! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard-pair as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberst der Infanterie-Truppen'
This is a very attractive - just minimally used- and/or worn but fully matching! - WH (Heeres), high-ranked officers'-type shoulderboard-pair that is piped in the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberst der Infanterie-Truppen' (or: army full-colonel who served within the infantry troops) and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem just minimally used ie. worn- and/or tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboards come mounted onto their typical officers-pattern tongues: they are truly 'text-book'-examples of the 'Heeres'-type 'Infanterie'-shoulderboards and have the silverish-black- (ie. somewhat tarnished-) 'upperdecks'. The boards show the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour (and are constructed from smooth-type wool as to be expected). The boards show each two (larger-sized, golden-toned- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based- albeit minimally tarnished) pips period-attached, denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Oberst'. The boards measure approximately 9,5 cms. in length each. The pair was most certainly used and/or worn as such and does show some minimal age, wear and/or staining. Simply a neat - and comparatively scarcely encountered! - fairly high-ranked, officers'-type, 'Infanterie'-related shoulderboard-pair that belonged to an: 'Oberst der Infanterie-Truppen'!
