Single, WH (Heeres) 'M36- o. M40'-pattern, 'cyphered' EM-shoulderstrap: 'Soldat u. Uffz.-Anw. des Art. Rgts. 10'
This is a neat - albeit clearly used and regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type, so-called: 'M36- o. M40'-pattern, 'cyphered' enlisted-mens'-type 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 des Artillerie Regiments 10' (or: simple soldier and NCO-candidate who served within the artillery-regiment, numbered: '10') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used-, worn- and most certainly carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The attractive strap - which measures approximately 11,5 cms. sized in length as more often encountered - has the 'standard-type'- and/or darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and shows the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured and/or rayon-type branchcolour ie. piping, attached. The strap shows the neatly hand-embroidered so-called: '1'- and/or: '0'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern' or numerals) attached. Moreover, does it show a single-pieced loop ie. 'Lasche' (firmly) attached (constructed from 'standard-issued'-pattern NCO-braid) denoting that the soldier who wore this piece was an: 'Unteroffiziers-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 nevere had a tongue attached and was with certainty used as a strap of the 'sew-in'-pattern. 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 des Artillerie Regiments 10': too bad that it is only a single specimen!
