Pair of WH (LW) officers'-type shoulderboards: 'Oberleutnant eines Flak-Artillerie-Abtlgs. o. Rgts.'
The truly attractive pair is piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour: as such, the pair was intended for usage by a an officer ie.: 'Oberleutnant eines Flak-Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments' (or: lieutnant first-class who served within a specific anti-aircraft-unit). The pair was presumably issued and moderately used ie. once tunic-attached and comes in an overall very nice condition. The shoulderboards - which are constructed from the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured, 'smooth-type' (ie. moleskin-like) wool - come in an excellent condition overall and will be hard to be upgraded (the pair is fully matching as can be seen on the pictures). The fairly 'shiny' appearance of the 'upperdecks' is fully present and/or preserved (something that is to be expected with a Luftwaffe-related pair). The boards - that come mounted onto their smaller-sized officers'-pattern tongues - are just a tiny bit 'tarnished' by normal age and/or storage for decades (as can be seen on the pictures). The boards - which measure approximately 11,7 cms. in length each - show two (fully-matching, regular-sized, golden-toned and unusually-seen glass-based!) pips period-attached denoting the officers'-rank ie. function of an: 'Oberleutnant eines Flak-Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments' (of additional interest is moreover the fact that all four pips were attached BEFORE the boards were fully assembled). The straps only show some storage-age and are void of any damage or alike. Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive, officers'-type LW-shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for an: 'Oberleutnant eines Flak-Artillerie-Abteilungs o. Regiments'!
