Superb - fully matching and scarcely encountered! - pair of WH (Heeres) later-war period- (ie. 'simplified'- ie. 'M44- o. M45'-pattern) EM-type shoulderstraps as intended for - and clearly worn by! - a: 'Soldat u. Offiz.-Anwärter der Inf.-Truppen'

The truly attractive - and actually very unusually seen! - WH (Heeres) 'Infanterie'-related enlisted-mens' shoulderstraps do show the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured and/or: typical 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measure approximately 10 cms. in length each and are clearly of the so-called: 'last-ditch'- (ie. 'M44 o. M45'-) pattern. The shoulderstraps are constructed from the (field-grey-toned- and/or quite roughly executed) later-war-type wool (as can be seen on pictures). The straps come naturally mounted onto their truly simplified tongues (both constructed from a piece of greyish-green-coloured- and/or linnen-based cloth ie. braid!) and do show clear usage and/or moderate wear ie. age (as can be seen on the pictures). Of interest is, moreover, the fact that both straps show a (double) stripe of silverish-toned NCObraid attached (by means of machinestitching) denoting that this particular pair was intended for a: 'Soldat u. Offiziers-Anwärter der Infanterie-Truppen' (or: simple infantry-soldier and/or officers'-candidate). The pair was clearly used and/or worn as such (as can be noticed on the pictures). It should be noted that these matching pairs of white-piped- (thus 'Infanterie'-related and/or later-war period- (ie. 'simplified'- 'M44- o. M45'-pattern-) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps are very desirable and can easily be graded 'very scarce' even more so when they come in this very nice and only moderately used- and/or truly worn condition!
