Pair of WH (Heeres) NCO-type, neatly 'cyphered' shoulderstraps: 'Ofwbl. einer Infanterie-Abtlgs.' within the famous 'GD'-division
This is a truly very attractive - very desirable and actually rarely encountered! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. mid-) war-period- (ie. 'M41 o. M43'-pattern) NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the desirable, white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and I deem clearly used by! - an: 'Oberfeldwebel einer Infanterie-Abteilungs' who served within the famous 'GrossDeutschland'-division and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly- ie. moderately used- and/or clearly tunic-removed-), condition. The neat straps - which I deem are of the early- (ie. mid-war-) period ie. so-called: 'M41 o. M43'-pattern - have the field-grey-coloured 'upperdecks' and have the neat, white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured and/or desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The tongues are naturally also present. The straps - which are regular-sized and that measure 11 cms. in length each - show the neat, sub-dued- (ie. bluish-grey-coloured- and/or 'standard'-pattern- ie. 'Heeres-type'-) NCO-braid and a pair of (very scarcely seen, fully matching, magnetic, regular-sized- and/or neatly silverish-toned- albeit somewhat tarnished ie. partly rust-stained) so-called: 'GD'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern') and four of (matching, regular- ie. smaller-sized and/or zinc-based) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of an: 'Oberfeldwebel' (ie. sergeant first-class). This rarely seen pair originated from an older and extensive shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. The pair on offer here just shows some truly minimal age, wear and or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive - and fully 'text-book'! - 'Infanterie'-related NCO-type 'GD'-shoulderstrap-pair that will be very hard to be upgraded and that is (I deem) accordingly priced!
