Superb - fully matching and I deem just moderately used! - darker-blue-coloured and neatly 'cyphered', WH (Kriegsmarine) officers'-type shoulderboard-pair as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Fregattenapitän und Arzt der Kriegsmarine'

This is a very attractive - just minimally used- and/or worn but fully matching! - WH (Kriegsmarine), fairly high-ranked and neatly 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard-pair that is constructed from darker-blue-coloured wool as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Fregattenapitän und Arzt der Kriegsmarine' (or: high-ranked naval-officer and medical doctor holding the comparable rank of a lieutnant-colonel) and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem just minimally used ie. worn- and/or clearly tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboards never had any tongues attached and were clearly intended for usage as a pair of the 'sew-in'-pattern: they are truly 'text-book'-examples of the 'Kriegsmarine'-type officers-type -shoulderboards and have the bright-silverish toned (ie. minimally tarnished-) 'upperdecks'. The boards are constructed from smooth-type wool as to be expected and show each a (smaller-sized, golden-toned- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based- albeit minimally tarnished) pip and Aesculapus-'cypher' (ie. 'Ziffer') period-attached, denoting the officers'-rank of a: 'Fregattenapitän und Arzt der Kriegsmarine'. The boards measure approximately 11 cms. in length each. Of interest is, moreover, the fact that this pair came with a pair of 'Schraubknöpfe' (as can be noticed on the pictures). The attractive 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! - high-ranked, naval officers'-type shoulderboard-pair that belonged to a: 'Fregattenapitän und Arzt der Kriegsmarine'!
