Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - early-pattern 'Allgemeine-HJ' (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstrap for usage by a: 'Hitlerjunge' who was attached to the: 'Bann 251' (Bann 251 = 'Bann Emden-Norden' situated in the 'Gebiet Nord-Nordsee')

This is a neat - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless not that easily found! - typical early-pattern, so-called: 'Allgemeine-HJ' (ie. general 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstrap as was intended for usage - and clearly worn! - by a: 'Hitlerjunge' who was attached to the: 'Bann 251' (Bann 251 = 'Bann Emden-Norden' situated in the 'Gebiet Nord-Nordsee') and that comes in an overall nice- (I deem clearly used- ie. carefully tunic- or shirt-removed-), condition. The strap - which is executed in typical, beige-tan-coloured linnen as to be expected - has the bright-red-coloured- (and rayon-based) piping attached (that shows some wear ie. damage) and shows the machine-embroidered - by means of 'Kurbelstickerei' (and/or equally coloured) so-called: '251'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern'). The strap never had a tongue attached and comes as found and/or issued: it is of 'sewn-in'- ie. 'snap-on'-pattern (and was also used as such): it still retains both its metal snaps with which it was worn. The strap - that is void of an 'RzM'-etiket - measures 10,9 cms. in length and does show some clear age ie. staining simply caused by fair wear and/or decades of storage only. It should be noted that all 'cyphered' (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'scarce' even more so when they are of the desirable early-pattern: Simply an attractive - and actually not that commonly encountered! - so-called: early-pattern, 'Allgemeine-HJ'-shoulderstrap that belonged to a 'HJ-Bann' based in the 'Gebiet Nord Nordsee'!
