'Standard'-issued, WH (Heeres) colourfull 'attachment' ie. annex to the handbook: 'Reibert' - Der Dienstunterricht im Heere' - 'Ausgabe für den Gewehr- und l. MG.Schützen' (9th edition) The soft-covered 'attachment' (ie. 'Anlage') is a 8-paged annex to the 'standard'-issued WH (Heeres) handbook entitled: 'Reibert' - Der Dienstunterricht im Heere' - 'Ausgabe für den Gewehr- und l. MG.Schützen'. This example - having a greenish-coloured (soft-)cover - was clearly used and/or read and shows some obvious wear and age. It includes various detailed and coloured pages showing the various uniforms and/or decorations (see pictures). I have never seen a similar example!
'Variant-pattern', 'Reichssportabzeichen DRL in Bronze' (or: DRL sports'-badge in bronze) being an unusually non-marked example that is void of any text on its back The badge is of the version with swastika and retains almost all of its (minimally darkened-, golden-bronze-coloured-) finish. As stated is the badge unusually non-maker-marked. The badge was IMO never cleaned nor polished and retains a fairly darkened (ie. somewhat dirty- and/or tarnished-) age-patina.
(Post) WWI-period: \'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter\' (ie.: \'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter\') being a maker- (ie. \'G19\'-) marked example that came stored in its luxuriously styled, bright-red-coloured etui This is an attactive example of a (post) WWI-period: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter') being a maker- (ie. 'G19'-) marked example that came stored in its luxuriously styled, bright-red-coloured etui and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved- (and IMO never worn-), condition. The attractive (and truly bronze-coloured) medal (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter') is a very nicely preserved- (and 'G19'-marked-) example that is executed in bronze-coloured-, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal. It retains all of its somewhat darkened-, bronze-toned finish (as can be seen on the pictures) and comes together with its period ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') which is stored in the specific 'compartment' in the etui. The bright-red-coloured- and semi-leather-based etui comes also in a wonderful and hardly used condition: it retains a fully preserved off-white- (ie. beige-yellowish-coloured-) and/or felt-like interior in place (which does show some minimal age and/or staining). The lid shows the (obligatory) printed text: 'Treue um Treue' followed by a facsimile signature of Paul von Hindenburg (as can be seen on the pictures). These attractive sets could be presented (or privately purchased) in the late twenties and thirties and are quite collectible and not that often seen. I deem that I have priced this attractive 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter'-medal-set accordingly!
(Post) WWI-period: \'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter\' (ie.: \'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter\') being a maker- (ie. \'HKM\'-) marked example that came stored in its luxuriously-styled, black-coloured etui This is an attactive example of a (post) WWI-period: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter') being a maker- (ie. 'HKM'-) marked example that came stored in its luxuriously styled, black-coloured etui and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved- (and I deem never worn-), condition. The attractive (and truly bronze-coloured) medal (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter') is a very nicely preserved- (and 'HKM'-marked-) example that is executed in bronze-coloured-, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal. It retains all of its somewhat darkened-, bronze-toned finish (as can be seen on the pictures) and comes together with its period ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') which is stored in the specific 'compartment' in the etui. The bright-red-coloured- and semi-leather-based etui comes also in a wonderful and hardly used condition: it retains a fully preserved off-white- (ie. beige-yellowish-coloured-) and/or felt-like interior in place (which does show some minimal age and/or staining). The lid shows the (obligatory) printed text: 'Treue um Treue' followed by a facsimile signature of Paul von Hindenburg (as can be seen on the pictures). These attractive sets could be presented (or privately purchased) in the late twenties and thirties and are quite collectible and are actually not that often seen. I deem that I have priced this attractive 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter'-medal-set accordingly!
(Post)WWI-period- and neatly enamelled so-called: \'Verdienstkreuz des Bayerischer Kriegerbund\' being a nicely preserved example that bears a makers\'-desgination on its back that reads: \'Deschler u. Sohn\' - München\' This is an attractive example of a (post)WWI-period- and/or neatly (partly) enamelled so-called: 'Verdienstkreuz des Bayerischer Kriegerbund' being a nicely preserved example that bears a makers'-desgination on its back that reads: 'Deschler u. Sohn' - München' and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved- (albeit most certainly issued- and/or moderately worn-), condition. The piece is executed in silverish-toned metal (ie. 'Buntmetall') and shows a (partly) enamelled- and light-blue-coloured 'inlay' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows a nice and/or minimally tarnished surface but is void of any damage: it comes mounted onto its (functional) pin- ie. pin/catch-set-up. deem that I have priced this attractive, WWI-veteran-related 'Verdienstkreuz des Bayerischer Kriegerbund' accordingly!
(Post)WWI-period- and neatly golden-toned, WWI-commerative lapel-pin entitled: \'Reichsverband Kriegsteilnehmer der Deutsch. Reichsbahn\' being a nicely preserved example that bears a makers\'-desgination on its back that reads: \'Glaser u. Sohn\' This is an attractive example of a (post)WWI-period- and/or neatly bright-golden-toned, WWI-commerative lapel-pin (ie. 'Mitgliedsabzeichen') entitled: 'Reichsverband Kriegsteilnehmer der Deutsch. Reichsbahn - 1914-18' that bears a clearly present makers'-desgination on its back that reads: 'Glaser u. Sohn - Dresden' and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved- (albeit most certainly issued- and/or moderately worn-), condition. The circular-shaped piece has an approximate diameter of 3,2 cms. and is executed in bright-golden-toned metal (ie. 'Buntmetall') and shows a typical 'Reichsbahn'-logo, two iron-crosses and shaking hands coupled by the text as mentioned above (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows a nice and/or minimally tarnished surface but is void of any damage: it comes mounted onto its (functional) pin- ie. pin/catch-set-up. deem that I have priced this attractive, WWI-veteran-related 'Mitgliedsabzeichen des Reichsverbandes Kriegsteilnehmer der Deutsch. Reichsbahn' accordingly!
(Post)WWI-period- ie. \'Freikorps\'-related, so-called: \'Langemarck\'-cross being a blackened-silver-toned- and/or \'Buntmetall\'-based cross (being a nicely preserved albeit non-maker-marked example that comes as recently found) This is an attractive (post)WWI-period- ie. 'Freikorps'-related, so-called: 'Langemarck'-cross being a blackened-silver-toned- and/or 'Buntmetall'-based cross (being a nicely preserved albeit non-maker-marked example that comes as recently found). These 'Langemarck'-crosses were instituted by a Köln-based veteran-organisation named the: 'Kameradschaft Grünes Korps des ehem. 26. Reserve Korps' (being a group of veterans that participated in the fierce - and famous! -battle in the village of Langemarck that took place on 21 October 1914). The 'Langemarck-Kreuz' on offer here is a black oxydised, 'Buntmetall'-based cross that was never cleaned nor polished and that comes mounted onto its (functional and unaltered) pin- ie. catch-set-up. Most- (ie. all!) of its blackened finish has been nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). The award is totally void of a makers'-designation as more often encountered (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice occasion to acquire an attractive example of a: 'Langemarck'-cross!
(Pre) WWI-period, bordeaux-red-coloured (albeit empty) etui as was intended to store a: \'Bayern Militär-Verdienstkreuz 2. Klasse\' (that shows the makers\'-designation: \'Hofkunstanstalt Jacob Leser - Straubing\') This is a neat (pre) WWI-period, bordeaux-red-coloured (albeit empty) two-pieced etui as was intended to store a: 'Bayern Militär-Verdienstkreuz 2. Klasse' being a nicely preserved example that shows the makers'-designation: 'Hofkunstanstalt Jacob Leser - Straubing' printed onto its back and that comes in an overall nicely preserved, condition. The bordeaux-red-coloured- and/or carton-based etui comes in a nice and/or moderately used condition: it retains a fully preserved light-blue-coloured interior in place (which does show some minimal age and/or staining as can be seen on the pictures). The etui shows a somewhat faded (albeit golden-toned) printed text on the back of the outer-part that reads: 'Hofkunstanstalt Jacob Leser - Straubing' (as can be seen on the pictures). The case just needs a 'Bayern Militär-Verdienstkreuz 2. Klasse'-to complete!
(Pre) WWI-period: \'Bayern Militär-Verdienstkreuz 3. Klasse mit Schwertern\' being a nicely preserved example that came stored in its luxuriously styled, light-blue-coloured etui (marked: \'Deschler u. Sohn\' - München\') This is an attactive example of a (pre) WWI-period so-called: 'Bayern Militär-Verdienstkreuz 3. Klasse mit Schwertern' being a nicely preserved example that came stored in its luxuriously styled, light-blue-coloured etui (marked: 'Deschler u. Sohn - München') and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved, condition. The attractive (and truly reddish-bronze-coloured) award is a nicely preserved example that retains all of its somewhat darkened, bronze-toned finish (as can be seen on the pictures) and comes together with its period ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') which is stored in the specific 'top-compartment' in the etui. The light-blue-coloured- and/or semi-leather-based etui comes also in a nice and moderately used condition: it retains a fully preserved darker-blue-coloured- and/or felt-like interior in place (which does show some minimal age and/or staining). The etui shows a makers-designation 'ribbon' that reads: 'Deschler u. Sohn' - München'. The top of the etui shows the (obligatory) silverish-coloured, printed text: 'Bayr. M.V.Kr. 3.Kl.' (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that I have priced this attractive 'Bayern Militär-Verdienstkreuz'-medal-set accordingly!
1944-pattern-, EM-type-, Waffen-SS cuff-title (ie. \'Ärmelstreifen\'), as executed in neat \'BeVo\'-weave pattern, as was intended for a member within the: \'SS-Gebirgsjäger-Regiment 12 \"Michael Gaißmair\" This is a truly very attractive - and naturally 100% original and truly rarely encountered! - so-called: 1944-pattern, Waffen-SS, enlisted-mens'-type cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') depicting the ('BeVo'-) machine-woven Latin-script text in silver-greyish-coloured linnen, as was intended for usage by a soldier ie. NCO who served within the: 'SS-Gebirgsjäger-Regiment 12 "Michael Gaißmair" (being a regiment within the '6. SS-Gebirgs-Division "Nord"), in overall very nice (ie. virtually mint-/unissued-) condition. The truly full-length cuff-title (approx. 48/49 cms. sized in length) has the typical 'salt and pepper-styled'-reverse and shows all details of an original, period-produced specimen as to be expected. This armband was produced by the: 'Bandfabrik Ewald Vorsteher' (aka: 'BeVo') as based in the town of Wuppertal and shows the interwoven company-name on one of the ends (something that is not always the case - see pictures). This cuff-title is naturally a 100% text-book - and as stated above - original example that originates from a US-veteran who 'liberated' this piece in 1945. The piece was with certainty never worn nor tunic-attached and can easily be graded 'mint-/unissued'. It should be noted that this specific regimental cuff-title is one of the rarest examples of the extensive 'BeVo'-weave pattern series. Simply a great opportunity to acquire an attractive and very rarely encountered Waffen-SS 'BeVo'-type cuff-title for a competitive price: I have seen these "Michael Gaißmair"-cuff-titles sell for much more than my asking-price!
2-pieced medal-bar (or: \'Spange\'), showing resp. an: \'EK II. Klasse\' in \'Schinkel\'-pattern and a: WH (Heeres ie. KM): \'DA 4. Stufe\' (or loyal-service-medal as was intended for 4 years loyal-service) The truly decorative, 2-pieced WH (Heeres ie. Kriegsmarine) medal-bar (or: 'Spange'), shows respectively an: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or Iron Cross second class) being a rarely seen early-example as executed in so-called: 'Schinkel'-format and a: 'Heeres' (ie. Kriegsmarine) 'Dienstauszeichnung 4. Stufe' (or loyal-service-medal as was intended for 4 years loyal-service), both medals in an overall very nice, albeit moderatly used and/or worn-, condition. Both medals are very nice, detailed examples which seem to have never been cleaned nor polished: both come in an equally tarnished- ie. dusty condition and also come on their period-mounted ribbons. The EK - which is mounted on its typical, red-coloured ribbon retains a fully preserved black-coloured- (ie. somewhat satin-like-) 'inner-core' and has a somewhat tarnished silver-frame (that still retains a fair bit of its high-polished sides ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten'. It is as mentioned a piece of the (scarcely seen!) early-period 'Schinkel'-format. (Note: the differences between a 'Schinkel'-format cross - which is in fact a smaller variant as mounted in a WWI IC rim - and a regular type can easily be spotted when compared next to eachother). Both other medals retain most of their original, frosted silver- toned finish: both medals (and/or ribbons) are just a bit dirty ie. tarnished, simply caused by moderate wear and/or decades of storage. The DA comes naturally with its obligatory (silver-coloured-) eagle-device attached. The 'Spange' is neatly 'backed' with light-green-coloured wool and comes naturally mounted on its functional pin-/catch set-up - see pictures. The medal-bar was recently found at a private household and was never before in a collection. The 'Spange' is most certainly a period-compiled and/or worn piece and is NOT a post-war compilation: it originated from a private household and was kept as such for decades. These 2-pieced medal-bars- ie. 'Spangen' having a 'Schinkel'-pattern IC attached can easily be graded 'scarce'.
2-pieced ribbon-bar (ie. \'Feld-/Bandspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a: \'KVK II.Kl. ohne Schwerter\' and an: \'N.S.D.A.P.- Dienstauszeichnung der 3. Stufe\' The 'Band-/Feldspange' holds the ribbons for a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz der 2. Klasse ohne Schwerter' (or: war merits'-cross second class without swords) and an: 'N.S.D.A.P.- Dienstauszeichnung der 3. Stufe' (or N.S.D.A.P. service-award as awarded for 10-years of loyal-service) and comes in an overall nice (albeit clearly issued- ie. moderately worn-) condition. The attached bronze-coloured- (and IMO copper-based-) (eagle-) device has a neat somewhat 'frosted' and/or very detailed appearance: it retains a nice and/or bright age-patina. Both ribbons are of the smaller- (ie. regular-) ribbon-bar size and measure 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered. The 'Spange' is in a very nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is not backed but shows a silver-toned back-plate and retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment (see pictures). It should be noted that all ribbon-bars containing an N.S.D.A.P. loyal-service medal can be graded 'fairly scarce'.
2-pieced, WH (Heeres, LW etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a: Czech \'Anschluss\'-medal (having a detailed and larger-sized \'Prager Burg-Spange\'-miniature attached) and an: \'EK II. Kl.\' The attractive - and actually in this format scarcely encountered! - two-pieced, WH (Heeres, LW etc.) medal-bar (ie. 'Band- o. Feldspange') is showing respectively the ribbons for a: Czech 'Anschluss'-medal (or: 'Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. Oktober 1938', as was awarded for the annexation of Czechoslovakia) having a detailed (and somewhat larger-sized) 'Prager Burg-Spange'-miniature attached and an: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: Iron Cross second-class). Both ribbons are of the larger (ie. regular-) ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 2,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 5 cms. as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes in a nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is not 'backed' but comes mounted onto a metal 'backing-plate' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment. The very detailed- and firmly attached 'Prager Burg'-device shows some minimal age ie. tarnish but has been nicely preserved. This particular example was ony moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 2-pieced-, WH-'Band-/Feldspange' having a not that often seen combination: great to decorate almost any tunic!
2-pieced-, WH (Heeres ie. KM etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Feld- o. Bandspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a: \'WH-DA der 3. Kl.\' with (golden-coloured-) eagle-device attached and a: \'Westwall\'-medal This is a neat example of a 2-pieced-, WWII-period ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o. Bandspange') respectively showing the ribbons for a WH (Heeres o. Kriegsmarine): 'Dienstauszeichnung für 12 Jahre Treue Dienste' (or: 12-years loyal-service medal having a detailed, golden-toned eagle-device attached) and a: 'Deutsches Schutzwall Ehrenzeichen' (aka: 'Westwall'-medal), both ribbons coming in an overall nice- (albeit used and/or moderately worn-), condition. The - detailed! - (eagle-) device has a neat and/or minimally 'frosted' albeit detailed appearance: it retains a nice and/or bright-coloured age-patina. The piece - with shows both its bars in the 'standard'- ie. regular (2,5 cm. wide-) version - is fully functional and comes mounted on its functional pin-/catch set-up: it is not 'backed' but comes mounted on a chrome-based, 'backing-plate' as more often. Simply an attractive 'Feld- o. Bandspange': ideal to upgrade or decorate almost any TR-related tunic!
3-pieced medal-bar (ie. \'Ordenspange\') showing resp. a: \'KvK 2. Kl. ohne Schw.\' (or: War Merits\' Cross second class without swords) and two (Austrian- and a Czech) \'Anschluss\'- (ie. occupation-) medals: \'1 März 1938\' (ie. \'1 October 1938\') This an attractive - and I deem just moderately used- and/or worn - example of a three-pieced medal-bar (ie. \'Ordenspange\') showing respectively a: \'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwertern\' (or: War Merits\' Cross second class without swords), an: WH Austrian \'Anschluss\'- (ie. occupation-) medal: \'1 März 1938\' (as was given to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Austria, which started on 1 March 1938) and a WH Czech \'Anschluss\'- (ie. occupation-) medal: \'1 October 1938\' (as was given to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Czecoslovakia, which started on 1 October 1938) and that come all three period-mounted as a (non-detachable) \'Ordenspange\' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit issued- and I deem just moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The KvK is an acttractive, very detailed and/or typical golden-bronze-toned (and I deem \'Buntmetall\'-based) specimen that just shows a minimally tarnished ie. stained appearance. It is totally void of any damage or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). Both \'Anschluss\'-medals are truly attractive examples having great pronounced detail: truly most of their silver- (ie. golden-) toned finish is still perfectly preserved whereas the medal has an attractive tarnish ie. age-patina without showing any defaults. The \'Spange\' just shows some minimal dust acquired over the years: the ribbons show some equal minor usage and/or staining. The \'Spange\' has truly very nice detail and is \'backed\' with a piece of greyish-green-coloured linnen and comes naturally mounted on its (still functional) pin-ie. catch set-up. Simply an attractive - and desirable! - example of a non-detachable, 3-pieced \'Ordenspange\' with an unusally encountered combination that can be mounted on almost any WH-tunic!
3-pieced WH (Heeres, LW etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a: \'KvK II. Kl. m. S.\', an: Austrian \'Anschluss\'-medal and a: Czech \'Anschluss\'-medal (having a detailed \'Prager Burg-Spange\'-miniature attached) The attractive - and actually in this format scarcely encountered! - three-pieced, WH (Heeres, LW etc.) medal-bar (ie. 'Band- o. Feldspange') is showing respectively the ribbons for a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz II. Klasse mit Schwerter' (or: war-merits' cross 2nd class with swords), an Austrian 'Anschluss'-medal (or: 'Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. März 1938', as was awarded for the annexation of Austria) and a Czech 'Anschluss'-medal (or: 'Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. Oktober 1938', as was awarded for the annexation of Czechoslovakia) having a detailed 'Prager Burg-Spange'-miniature attached. All three ribbons are of the smaller (ie. regular-) ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 4,5 cms. as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes in a nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is not 'backed' but comes mounted onto a chrome-based 'backing-plate' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment. The very detailed- and firmly attached 'Prager Burg'-device shows some minimal age ie. tarnish but has been nicely preserved. This particular example was ony moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 3-pieced-, WH-'Band-/Feldspange' having a not that often seen combination: great to decorate almost any tunic!
3-pieced, WH (Heeres, LW etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a: \'KvK II. Kl. m. S.\', an: \'Ost-medal\' and a: Czech \'Anschluss\'-medal (having a detailed \'Prager Burg-Spange\'-miniature attached) The attractive - and actually in this format scarcely encountered! - three-pieced, WH (Heeres, LW etc.) medal-bar (ie. 'Band- o. Feldspange') is showing respectively the ribbons for a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz II. Klasse mit Schwerter' (or: war-merits' cross 2nd class with swords), a: 'Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42' (or: Eastern Front- ie. 'Ost'-medal) and a Czech 'Anschluss'-medal (or: 'Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. Oktober 1938', as was awarded for the annexation of Czechoslovakia) having a detailed 'Prager Burg-Spange'-miniature attached. All three ribbons are of the smaller (ie. regular-) ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 3,5 cms. as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes in a nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is nicely 'backed' with a piece of black-coloured wool (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment. The very detailed- and firmly attached 'Prager Burg'-device shows some minimal age ie. tarnish but has been nicely preserved. This particular example was ony moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 3-pieced-, WH-'Band-/Feldspange' having a not that often seen combination: great to decorate almost any tunic!
3-pieced, WH (Polizei etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a WWI-period: \'EK II. Kl.\', a: \'FKK 14-18 m. S.\' and a: \'Polizei DA der II.

Feldspange') is showing respectively the ribbons for a WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: Iron Cross second-class), a: WWI-period: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter')' and a (scarcely seen!) so-called: 'Polizei-Dienstauszeichnung der 2. Stufe' (or: police loyal service medal of the 2nd class as was awarded for 18 years of service) having a detailed (and regular-sized) police-eagle-miniature attached. All three ribbons are of the larger (ie. regular-) ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 4,5 cms. as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes in a nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is nicely 'backed' with field-grey-coloured wool (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment. The very detailed- and firmly attached 'Polizei'-device shows some minimal age ie. tarnish but has been nicely preserved. This particular example was ony moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 3-pieced-, WH- ie.

Simply an attractive 'Feld- o. Bandspange': ideal to upgrade or decorate almost any TR-related tunic!

All three ribbons are of the smaller (ie. regular-), ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 4,5 cms. as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes in a nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is not 'backed' but comes mounted onto a metal-based 'backing-plate' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment (see pictures). This particular example was IMO moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 3-pieced-, WH-'Band-/Feldspange' having a more often seen combination: great to decorate almost any TR-period tunic!
3-pieced-, WH (Heeres- ie. KM etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing the ribbons for an: \'Ost\'-medal, a: \'WH-Dienstauszeichnung 2. Stufe\' (as was intended for 4 years of loyal-service) and a: \'Westwall\'-medal This is a neat three-pieced-, WH (Heeres- ie. KM etc.) medal-bar (ie. 'Band- o. Feldspange') showing respectively the ribbons for a: 'Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42' (or: Eastern Front- ie. 'Ost'-medal), a WH (Heeres o. Kriegsmarine): 'Dienstauszeichnung für 4 Jahre Treue Dienste' (or: 4-years loyal-service medal that is void of an attached eagle-device) and a: a: 'Deutsches Schutzwall Ehrenzeichen' (aka: 'Westwall'-medal) all three ribbons coming in an overall nice- (albeit used and/or moderately worn-), condition. All three ribbons are of the smaller (ie. regular-), ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 4,5 cms. as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes in a nice condition overall and is of course fully functional: it is 'backed' with a piece of grass-green-coloured wool (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment (see pictures). This particular example was IMO moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 3-pieced-, WH-'Band-/Feldspange' having a not that often seen combination: great to decorate almost any TR-period tunic!
4-pieced medal-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for an: \'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse\', a: \'KvK II. Klasse mit Schw.\', a: \'Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42\' and a WWI-period: \'FKK o. Schw.\' I recently found two - fully identical and minimally used! - examples of a four-pieced, Third Reich- (ie. WWI-) period medal-bar (ie. 'Band- o. Feldspange') that are both respectively showing the ribbons for an: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross second class), a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz II. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: war-merits'-cross second class with swords), a: 'Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42' (or: Eastern Front- ie. 'Ost'- medal) and a WWI-period: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 ohne Schwerten' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 ohne Schwertern') and that come both in a minimally used- ie. worn, condition. All four ribbons are of the regular ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as more often encountered (both 'Bandspangen' have a total length of approximately 6 cms. each as can be seen on the pictures). Both 'Spangen' coms in a nice condition overall and are of course fully functional: they are nicely 'backed' with a piece of field-grey-coloured wool and retain their functional pin-/catch-attachment (as can be seen on the pictures). My asking price is naturally intended per single specimen. Simply an attractive 4-pieced, 'Band-/Feldspange': great to decorate almost any tunic!
4-pieced WH (Heer) ‘\'Panzer-Aufklärungs\'’-related award-document grouping, all four documents as awarded to the ‘(Ober-)Gefreiten’ Lang, member within the: ‘4./Pz,-Aufklärungs-Abt. 9’ (part of the: ‘9.Pz-Division’) This is a truly nice - and fairly unusually encountered! - 4-pieced, WH (Heer) ‘Panzer-Aufklärungs’-related award-document grouping, all four documents, as awarded to the ‘(Ober-)Gefreiten’ Werner Lang, member within the: ‘4./Panzer-Aufklärungs-Abteilung 9’ (part of the: ‘9.Panzer-Division’), all four documents in a nice and/or undamaged (albeit partly ‘hole-punched’) condition. The set includes respectively the documents for a: ‘Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz’ (or black wound-badge), an ‘Ost’-medal (or ‘Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten’), a neat (and not that often seen!) so-called: ‘Kraftfahrbewährungsabzeichen in Gold’ (or golden-class drivers’ badge) and a neat ‘Besitzzeugnis’ as issued for the Bulgarian ‘Soldatenkreuz des Tapferkeitsordens IV. Klasse’. All four documents are in a wonderfull condition overall: they are not denazified and all nicely ink-stamped and/or signed: all four A-5-sized documents are just once folded and as stated ‘hole-punched’ and are a bit yellowed by normal age ie. storage for decades. The first document in the set is a ‘standard’ and/or A5-sized award-document, as intended for a: ‘Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten 1941/42’ (or ‘Ostmedal’), which was awarded to Lang on 1 August 1942. This document is nicely signed by a (regrettably unidentified) ‘Chefarzt u. Oberstabsarzt’. It is nicely - and clearly! - ink-stamped with a stamp that reads: ‘Reservelazarett ...’ (unreadable). The second document in the set is a neat - and rarely observed! - award-document as issued for the Bulgarian ‘Soldatenkreuz des Tapferkeitsordens 4. Klasse’ - which Lang obtained on 20 June 1942. This is also a neat A5-sized and/or pre-printed example executed in German language (or ‘Vordrückte Besitzzeugnis’). This document is clearly signed by Langs’ commanding officer being an unidentified: ‘Oberleutnant u. Batl.-Kommandeur’. This example is also clearly (red) ink-stamped with a stamp that reads: ‘Krd.Schütz.Btl.59’ (being a motorcycle-related unit!). The document was most certainly handed out (on 20 June 1942) ‘at the front’ (something that can easily be deducted from the typed wording: ‘Im Felde’). The third document in the set is an award-document (or ‘Vorbedrückte Besitzzeugnis’), as intended for the: ‘Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz’ (or black wound-badge), as awarded to Lang on 25 July 1943 (for injuries that he got on 25 July 1943). At that time he served within the: ‘Panzer-Aufklärungs-Abteilung 9’. It is nicely signed by an (unidentified) ‘Oberstabsarzt u. Chefarzt’ and is nicely - and clearly! - ink-stamped: ‘Reserve-Lazarett Jauer’. The fourth - and last - document in the set is a neat - and actually rarely observed! - IMO ‘provisional’ and/or machine-typed award-document (or ‘Besitzzeugnis’) as issued for a: ‘Kraftfahrbewährungsabzeichen in Gold’ (or golden-class drivers’ badge), which Lang obtained on 2 July 1943. This example is also clearly (purple) ink-stamped with a stamp that reads: Panzer-Aufklärungs-Abteilung 9’ and is neatly signed by Langs’ commanding-officer being a (unidentified) ‘Hauptmann u. Abteilungsleiter’. At that time he served within the: ‘4./Panzer-Aufklärungs-Abteilung 9’. This document was most certainly also handed-out (on 2 July 1943) ‘at the front’ (something that can easily be deducted from the typed wording: ‘Im Felde’). I deem that this neat little grouping most certainly merits further investigation. This neat medium-sized grouping on offer here shows the complete army-career (including unit-transfers) of a reconnaisance-Panzer-soldier (most likely a: ‘Kradschützen’-soldier or motor-cyclist). The set was never before in a collection and originates from a private house-hold. Simply a nice and desirable WH (Heer) ‘Panzer-Aufklärungs’-related award-document grouping that is IMO accordingly priced!
4-pieced WH (Heeres, SS, KM etc.) medal-bar (ie. \'Ordenspange\') showing resp. a: \'KvK II. Kl. m. Schw.\', an: \'Ost\'-medal, a: \'Treuedienst Ehrenzeichen 2. Klasse\' and a: \'Kriegsverdienstmedaille 1939\' The attractive - and actually in this combination scarcely encountered! - WH (Heeres, SS, KM etc.) four-pieced medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') shows respectively a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: war-merits'-cross second class with swords), a: 'Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42' (or: Eastern Front- ie. 'Ost'- medal), a: 'Treuedienst Ehrenzeichen 2. Klasse' (or: silver-class, loyal-service-medal for 25 yrs. of civil loyal-service) and a: 'Kriegsverdienstmedaille 1939' all four awards coming in an overall nice- (albeit moderatly used and/or worn-), condition. All four awards are nicely preserved examples that seem to have never been cleaned nor polished: they come in an equally minimally tarnished- ie. dusty condition and naturally also come mounted on their period ribbons. The 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' is a nicely preserved example as executed in golden-bronze-toned 'Buntmetall'. The 'Ost'-medal is executed in typical 'zinc-' (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal and medal retains an attractive (ie. blue-greyish-coloured-) and/or fairly 'matted' age-patina and has never been cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp. The 'Treuedienst Ehrenzeichen 2. Klasse' has never been cleaned and has an immaculate (ie. fully undamaged) enamelled swastika-area. The bronze-golden-toned (and I deem zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based: 'Kriegsverdienstmedaille 1939' is a nicely preserved example that is just a tiny bit stained. The 'Spange' comes naturally mounted on its functional pin- ie. catch set-up and is nicely 'backed' with a piece of field-grey-coloured wool as is more often seen (as can be seen on the pictures). The medal-bar was recently found at a private household and was never before part of a collection. The 'Spange' is most certainly a period-compiled- and/or worn piece and is NOT a post-war compilation or alike: it originated from a private household and was kept as such for decades. Simply a very attractive - and truly decorative! - four-pieced, medal-bar- ie. 'Spange' that is in my opinon accordingly priced!
4-pieced WH (Luftwaffe) \'cyphered\'-, officers-pattern shoulderboard-pair and dito collar-tabs as piped in the rust-brown-coloured branchcolour, as was intended for musicians- ie. band-leaders (or: \'Musikmeister im Offiziersrang\') This is a truly very attractive - and/or fully matching and with certainty very rarely encountered! - 4-pieced WH (Luftwaffe) 'cyphered'-, officers-pattern shoulderboard-pair and dito collar-tabs, all four pieces as piped in the light-brown- (ie. 'hellbrauner'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for musicians- ie. band-leaders (or: 'Musikmeister im Offiziersrang') and that comes in overall very nice- (IMO issued- albeit never worn-), condition. The attractive shoulderboards - which are constructed from the silver- and bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured 'braid' and having the light-brown-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'underlays' - come in an excellent condition overall and are simply hard to be upgraded. The 'upperdecks' show the (obligatory) integrated 'stripes' of bright-red-coloured 'braid' as to be expected. The shoulderboards - which measure approximately 11,5 cms. in length each - show two identical (neatly darker golden-toned- and/or matching-) so-called: 'Lyra'-cyphers and a single pip each attached (which all four retain most of their golden-bronze toned finish) and were as such intended for an officer with the rank of: 'Oberleutnant' (ie. lieutnant first-class). The boards come with their typical officers'-type tongues attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair came together with a neatly hand-embroidered pair of (also light-brown-piped) collar-tabs (ie. 'Kragenspiegel'). These are 'backed' with beige-coloured 'Buckram' and show the additional hand-embroidered 'Lyra'-cyphers (as can be seen on the pictures). All four insignia are as stated above piped in the light-brown- (ie. 'hellbrauner'-) coloured branchcolour something that indicates that the officer who wore this set belonged to the: 'Nachrichten-Truppen' (or: signal troops). Simply a superb - and truly rarely encountered! - 'Luftwaffe', commised-officers'-type shoulderboard- and collar-tab-set that will be very hard to be upgraded. Only the first such rare and complete insignia-set I ever had on offer!
4-pieced, WH (Heeres o. KM etc.) ribbon-bar (ie. \'Band- o. Feldspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for an: \'EK II.Kl.\', a: \'KvK II.Kl. m.

All four ribbons are of the regular- (ie. somewhat smaller) ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,2 cms. each as is more often encountered (the piece has thus a total length of approximately 5 cms.). The \'Spange\' comes in an overall nice condition and is of course fully functional: it is not \'backed\' but comes mounted onto a metal \'backing-plate\' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece retains its functional pin- ie. pin/catch-attachment. This particular example was - I deem - only moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive four-pieced, WH-related \'Band-/Feldspange\': great to decorate almost any WH-tunic!

Kl.\' (with eagle-device), a: Czech \'Anschluss\'-medal (with \'Prager Burg-Spange\'-miniature attached This is a neat example of a four-pieced, ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o.

Klasse mit Schwerter' (or: war-merits' cross 2nd class with swords), a: 'WH-Dienstauszeichnung für 4 Jahre Treue Dienste' (or: loyal-service medal as was awarded for four years of loyal service) that comes with a silver-coloured eagle-device attached,. a: Czech 'Anschluss'-medal (with 'Prager Burg-Spange'-miniature attached) and an unknown award (possibly a WWI-period service-medal). All four ribbons are of the smaller (ie. regular-) ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1,5 cms. each as is more often encountered (the 'Bandspange' has a total length of approximately 6 cms. as can be seen on the pictures).

The piece retains its functional pin-/catch-attachment. The very detailed- and firmly attached 'Prager Burg'-device shows some minimal age ie. tarnish but has been nicely preserved. This particular example was ony moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 4-pieced-, WH-'Band-/Feldspange' having a not that often seen combination: great to decorate almost any tunic!

The piece - that has a total length of 10,5 cms. - comes in an overall very nice- (albeit used and/or moderately worn-), condition. The - detailed! - (eagle-) devices have a neat and/or minimally 'frosted' albeit detailed appearance: they all retain a nice and/or somewhat tarnished age-patina. The piece - with shows all seven bars in the 'standard'- ie. regular (1,5 cms. wide-) version and that is confectioned in a 'regular manner' - is fully functional and comes mounted onto its regular pin- ie. pin/catch set-up: the piece is, however, not 'backed' as is more often seen. The piece originated from a private household in Germany and was never before in collectors'-hands. It should be noted that these fairly longer-sized 'Luftwaffe'-related 'Feld- o. Bandspangen' are not that easily encountered and can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Simply a very attractive (and long-sized!) WWI (ie. WWII-) period: Luftwaffe-related 'Feld- o. Bandspange': ideal to upgrade or decorate almost any TR-related 'Luftwaffe'-tunic!
8-pieced WH (Heeres) \'Gebirgsjäger\'-related insignia- and/or award-grouping that belonged to a soldier (ie. NCO ie. \'Unteroffizier\') who served within the: \'Gebirgs-Pionier-Bataillon 54\' and that comes mounted onto a period-compiled \'card\' This is a very interesting - and actually scarcely encountered! - 8-pieced WH (Heeres) 'Gebirgsjäger'-related insignia- and medal-grouping that belonged to a soldier (ie. NCO or: 'Unteroffizier') who served within the: 'Gebirgs-Pionier-Bataillon 54' and that comes mounted onto a period-compiled 'card' as recently found. The grouping respectively comprises of a (rarely seen!) pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, so-called: 'M36-/M40'-pattern- (pointed-styled-) 'cyphered'- and/or per regulation non-piped NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for - and worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizier des 'Gebirgs-Pionier-Bataillon 54' (or: junior-sergeant who served within the army mountain-troops/engineers battalion, numbered: '54'). These shoulderstraps - which measure approximately 11,9 cms. sized in length - have the 'standard-type'- and/or darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdecks' and have (of course) no piping attached. They show the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) so-called: '5'- and '4'-cyphers ie. numerals. Both 'cyphers' are executed in the black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured wool ie. linnen and are additionally piped in white as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which come without tongues and came clearly 'cut-off a tunic' - have the 'standard-pattern', silver-coloured NCO-braid attached and do show moderate usage and/or wear. Next to this, the set comprises of a (worn and tunic-removed) 'Edelweiss'-arm-patch (in 'BeVo'-woven style) and a neat black- (ie. white-piped) 'Pioniere'-related: 'Signal-Blitz'. Furthermore are there two 'ribbon-bars' (ie. 'Band-/Feldspangen') of which one is intended for a: 'WH-Dienstauszeichnung 4. Stufe' (as was intended for 4 years of loyal-service). There is also a (nicely preserved) 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (by a by me unidentified maker) that comes mounted onto an incorrect (but period-done!) piece of ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt'): I could not determine if it deals with a maker-marked example: the ring is firmly obscured by the ribbon. The IC has a nicely preserved black-coloured (ie. 'satin'-like) 'inner-core' that is void of any damage. Lastly does the set include a: 'Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. März 1938' as was awarded to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Austria that started on: '1. März 1938'. This example comes mounted onto its period ribbon and is just a bit tarnished by age (as can be seen on the pictures). All eight pieces were (firmly!) glued onto a carton-based 'card' (sized: 24 x 18 cms.) that was most certainly once framed. Simply a very attractive, 8-pieced WH (Heeres) 'Gebirgsjäger'-related insignia- and/or award-grouping that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier') who served within the: 'Gebirgs-Pionier-Bataillon 54'!
8-pieced-, WH (LW) medal-bar (ie. \'Feld- o. Bandspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a WWI-period: \'EK II.Kl.\', a: \'FKK m. S.\', two \'WH-DA der 3. u. 4. Kl.\' (having their golden-toned eagle-devices attached) and 4 other WWI-period awards This is a neat example of an eight-pieced-, WWI (ie. WWII-) period- (and WH 'Heeres o. Kriegsmarine'-related) ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o. Bandspange') respectively showing the ribbons for a: WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross 2nd class), a WWI-period: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter'), two WH (Heeres o. KM) 'Dienstauszeichnungen' (for IMO resp. 4 and 12 years of loyal-service) both pieces having their golden-toned eagle-device period-attached) and four other (pre) WWI-period, commemorative awards (some of which are showing their period-applied devices attaches). The piece comes in an overall very nice- (albeit used and/or moderately worn-), condition. The - detailed! - (eagle-) devices have a neat and/or minimally 'frosted' albeit detailed appearance: they both retain a nice and/or bright-coloured age-patina. The piece - with shows all eight bars in the 'standard'- ie. regular (2 cms. wide-) version and that is confectioned in a 'regular manner' - is fully functional and comes without pin-/catch set-up (it was sewn on the tunic): the piece is, moreover, nicely 'backed' with a piece of black-coloured wool as is more often seen. The piece originated from a private household in Germany and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive (and long-sized!) WWI (ie. WWII-) period: 'Feld- o. Bandspange': ideal to upgrade or decorate almost any TR-related 'Heeres o. Kriegsmarine'-tunic!
8-pieced-, WWI- (ie. WWII-) period ribbon-bar (ie. \'Feld- o. Bandspange\'), showing resp. the ribbons for (amongst others) an: \'EK II. Klasse\', a: \'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schw.\', a: \'KvK II. Kl. m. Schw.\' and two \'WH-DA\' This is a truly very attractive 8-pieced-, WWI- (ie. WWII-) period ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o. Bandspange') showing respectively the ribbons for a WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz der II. Kl.' (or: iron-cross second class), a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz II. Klasse mit Schwerter' (or: War Merits' Cross second class with swords), an Austrian: 'bronzene Tapferkeitsmedaille' (having a golden-toned laurel-wreath attached), a: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schw.' (or: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter'), two so-called: 'WH-Dienstauszeichnungen der 2. u. 3. Klasse' (or WH loyal-service-medals as were respectively awarded for twelve- ie. eigtheen years of loyal-service both having a (bright-golden-coloured-) eagle-device period-attached) and two (Austrian) service-medals. All eigth ribbons are of the regular (ie. smaller-), ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 1 cms. each (as is more often encountered). The 'Spange' comes in a very nice condition overall and is neatly 'backed' with a piece of purple-coloured wool (as is more often seen). The firmly attached (and detailed!) devices show some minimal age ie. tarnish but have all been very nicely preserved. This particular example was IMO moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply a very attractive 'Feld- o. Bandspange' having an unusual combination and that presumably belonged to an Austrian WWI and WWII-veteran: great to decorate almost any WWI (ie. WWII-) tunic!
9-pieced-, WH (LW) medal-bar (ie. \'Feld- o. Bandspange\') showing resp. the ribbons for a WWI-period: \'EK II.Kl.\', a: \'FKK m. S.\', two \'WH-DA der 1. u. 2. Kl.\' (having their golden-toned eagle-devices attached) and 5 other WWI-period awards This is a neat example of a nine-pieced-, WWI (ie. WWII-) period- (and WH 'Luftwaffe'-related) ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o. Bandspange') respectively showing the ribbons for a: WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross 2nd class), a WWI-period: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter'), two WH (Heeres o. KM) 'Dienstauszeichnungen' (for IMO resp. 18 and 25 years of loyal-service) both pieces having their golden-toned eagle-device period-attached) and five other (pre) WWI-period, commemorative awards (some of which are showing their period-applied devices attaches). The piece comes in an overall very nice- (albeit used and/or moderately worn-), condition. The - detailed! - (eagle-) devices have a neat and/or minimally 'frosted' albeit detailed appearance: they both retain a nice and/or bright-coloured age-patina. The piece - with shows all nine bars in the 'standard'- ie. regular (1,5 cms. wide-) version and that is confectioned in a 'regular manner' - is fully functional and comes mounted on its functional pin- and/or catch set-up: the piece is, moreover, nicely 'backed' with a piece of field-grey-coloured wool as is more often seen. The piece originated from a private household in Germany and was never before in collectors-hands: I deem that this particular piece belonged to high-grade LW-officer (maybe even a general-officer!) and would certainly merit further investigative work: it might even well be that the officers'-name might be uncovered. Simply a very attractive (and long-sized!) WWI (ie. WWII-) period: 'Feld- o. Bandspange': ideal to upgrade or decorate almost any TR-related 'Luftwaffe'-tunic!
A4-sized WH (Kriegsmarine) award-document for a: \'‘WH-Dienstauszeichnung IV. Kl.’\', as issued to the: \'‘Oberstabsmatrosen\'’ Leschinsky, who served within the: ‘\'I. Marineunteroffizierlehrabteilung’\' This is a nice example of a decorative (and A-4 sized) 'standard’ - albeit variant- and/or early type! - A4-sized WH (Reichs- ie. Kriegsmarine) award-document as issued on 2 October 1936 for a: ‘WH-Dienstauszeichnung IV. Kl.’ (or loyal service-medal of the fourth class) to the: ‘Oberstabsmatrosen’ named: Ernst Leschinsky, who served within the: ‘I. Marineunteroffizierlehrabteilung’, in overall nice, albeit used condition. The document - which shows a neat pre-printed eagle-device on the top as more often encountered - and is in an overall nice, unfolded and not hole-punched, condition: it is also not denazified and just somewhat dirty and stained by normal storage. It is nicely - and clearly! - signed by the: ‘II.Admiral der Ostsee’ being the: ‘Konteradmiral’ Otto von Schrader (18-03-1888 - 19-07-1945). Von Schrader was a highly decorated naval career-officer who was awarded the ‘Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes’ (or knights cross of the iron cross) on 19 August 1943. The document is also nicely (blue) ink-stamped with an early-type stamp that clearly reads: ‘Reichsmarine - II.Admiral der Ostsee - Schiffstammdivision’. Simply a nice 'standard' - and very early ie. pre-war - ‘Reichs- ie. Kriegsmarine’ so-called: ‘Dienstauszeichnung IV Klasse’ award-document as awarded to an ‘Oberstabsmatrosen’ who joined the naval-forces as early as 1932!
A5-sized \'DRK\'-related award-document & insignia set, as intended for a 5-year loyal-service stripe (ie.: \'DRK Auszeichnungsborte\') as issued to the: \'DRK-Helfer\' Alois Sauer This is a truly very nice - and actually never before encountered! - A5-sized and neatly pre-printed example of a: 'DRK'- (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz' or German red cross-) related award-document (and accompanying insignia ie. stripe or 'Borte'!) as intended for a 5-year loyal-service stripe (ie. so-called: 'DRK Auszeichnungsborte'), as issued on 30 January 1940, to the: 'DRK-Helfer' Alois Sauer, member withing the medical-institute: 'Stockheim (Kst.Mellrichstadt)', in overall very nice and totally undamaged condition. The neat pre-printed- (ie. 'Vorbedrücktes'-) document shows the typical 'DRK'-logo in the upper right-corner and was apparently issued on behalf of the: 'Stellvertretende Landesführer des Landesstelle XIII', being the: 'DRK-Generalführer' named: Dr. Konrad. The document bears a (facsimile) signature of this DRK general-officer. The document is also - clearly! - ink-stamped with a (blue-/red coloured-) ink-stamp that reads: 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz - Landesstelle XIII'. Although the fact that the stripe ie. 'Borte' was issued to the male-nurse Sauer with effect on 30 January 1940, the document bears a later date, namely: 1 September 1942 (something that was not unusal). As stated is the document accompanied by its (never mounted- nor used-) insignia ie. stripe (or 'Borte'): this piece measures 10,5 cms. in length and is neatly woven in silver-braid having a red-coloured centre-strip as per regulation. These insignia were worn on the lower right-arm of the greyish-black- coloured uniforms. As stated is the document in an overall very nice condition: it is not denazified nor damaged and has just been once-foilded. I deem that this very interesting DRK-award-document-/insignia grouping would most certainly merit further investigative work: only the first such set I ever had on offer!

Air-raid warden medal (or: \'Luftschutz-Ehrenzeichen 2.Stufe\'), being an neat maker- (ie. \'60\'-) marked and/or regular-weight version as executed in zinc-based metal (ie. \'Feinzink\') The neat maker- (ie. '60'-) marked medal comes together with its (neatly pre-confectioned and/or pre-folded- ie. 19 cms. sized-) ribbon and is in very nice condition overall. The medal was IMO most certainly issued and/or minimally worn (it shows some dust and dirt simply caused by years of storage and or minimal wear) but retains great pronounced detail without showing any defaults. The piece comes mounted on its aluminium-based ring that shows the makers-mark: 60 (denoting that this is a medal that was produced by the medal-producing company: 'Katz u. Doehle' based in the town of Pforzheim: Simply a nice example which is hard to upgrade!

'Bandabschnitt') and comes in an overall very nice- (albeit issued- but I deem never worn- nor even mounted-) condition, overall. The medal - that shows the clear makers'-designation '10' stamped into its (aluminium-based) ring - is a typical example that was produced by the maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Förster & Barth' as based in the town of Pforzheim. Both award and ribbon do show some minimal age ie. staining simply caused by decades of storage but do retain great pronounced detail without showing any defaults whatsoever.

Aluminium-based - albeit regrettably \'broken\' - WH (Heeres) ie. \'Infanterie\'-related ID-disc bearing the clearly stamped unit-designation that simply reads: \'3./Inf.Ers.Bat. 193\' and that comes as issued- and/or worn This is neat - albeit regrettably 'broken' - example of a silverish-coloured- and/or typical aluminium-based WH (Heeres) ie. 'Infanterie'-related ID-disc (ie. 'Erkennungsmarke') that is bearing the clearly stamped unit-designation that simply reads: '3./Inf.Ers.Bat. 193' (and as such being a disc that was - I deem - intended for a soldier or NCO who served within the: third company of the ('Infanterie') replacement- (ie. 'Ersatz') 'Bataillon', numbered: '193') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used ie. worn-), condition. The attractive disc comes in overall nice condition (and is executed in an attractive letter-type!) and shows the clear evidence of having been used ie. worn (it shows somewhat 'torn-out'-holes as can be seen on the pictures). The disc also shows the stamped bearers'-blood-group-type (type '0') something that is more often but not always observed. The disc was never cleaned nor polished (it is still a bit stained and/or dirty). The disc originates from a larger ID-disc collection that was compiled over many years. Simply an attractive and honest WH (Heeres) 'Infanterie-Truppen'-related ID-disc that is priced according to its 'broken' condition!

The pieces are executed in 'stamped' ie. pressed alumnium-based metal and truly retain all of their red- and/or black-painted colour as to be expected. Next to the clearly present makers'-designation do the badges also bear a: 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending marking and/or date of production ('1938') (as can be seen on the pictures). Naturally, do they have all their two (never bent) aluminium-based prongs present and can as such easily be mounted onto a RAD-cap. The badges truly show great pronounced detail and will be simply impossible to be upgraded: my asking-price is naturally intended for a single specimen!

'Koppelschloss für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere des Deutsches Rotes Kreuzes') truly retains all of its greyish-silver-toned finish and comes in a just minimally used- ie. hardly worn, condition: it does show some minimal age ie. staining simply caused by minimal usage and decades of storage and/or handling over the years but was never cleaned nor polished. The buckle is very nicely preserved but is void of a makers'-designation: it does show, however, a clearly present patent-pending-designation (ie. 'Ges.Gesch. 1'-marking) which impressed marking is visible on the back of the buckle (as can be seen on the pictures). The buckle - which truly retains great pronounced detail - orginates from an older belt-buckle-collection that was compiled over many years and that I acquired for the web-site.

The disc - which is executed in a clear and fine letter-type and that also shows the soldiers' blood-group-type (Type 'B') - is still a tiny bit dirty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished. It comes as worn and/or stored for decades and originates from a private household somewhere in Germany. Simply a very nice and honest 'Infanterie'-related ID-disc that belonged to a soldier (ie. NCO or officer) who served within a specific infantry-related unit. I deem that this neat disc is accodingly priced!
Aluminium-based, 'S.H.D.'- (ie. 'Sicherheits- u. Hilfsdienst'-) related ID-disc that comes mounted on its original cord as issued and/or worn, bearing the neatly stamped unit-signification that reads: 'VI 11 491 S.H.D.' The ID-disc - which is executed in a neat and/or clearly pronounced letter-type - was clearly worn and comes as found and was never cleaned nor polished: it shows however moderate usage (somewhat 'torn-out holes'). The disc is void of the soldiers' bloodgroup-type and is still a bit dirty ie. stained (it was however never cleaned nor polished and comes as recently found). It should be noted that these ID-discs as belonging to one of the more unknown and/or obscure TR-organisations such as this 'Sicherheits- u. Hilfsdienst' can easily be graded 'rare'.

Aluminium-based-, WH (LW-) ie. \'Fallschirmjäger\'-related ID-disc, bearing the clearly stamped- and/or: \'coded\' unit-designation that reads: \'63125\' (and as such belonging to a soldier ie. NCO who served within the: \'1./Fsch.Jg.Rgt.1 “Stendal”) This is an attractive - and actually rarely encountered! - example of a silver-coloured- and/or alumnium-based, WH (Luftwaffe-) ie. 'Fallschirmjäger'-related ID-disc (ie. 'Erkennungsmarke') that came mounted onto its period (black-coloured) cord and that that is bearing the clearly stamped- (and/or: 'coded') unit-designation (aka: 'MOB-liste-Nummerierung') that reads: '63125' (and as such belonging to a paratrooper-soldier (or NCO ie. officer) who served within the: '1./Fsch.Jg.Rgt.1 “Stendal”) (or: first company of the 'Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 1', based in the town of Stendal). The disc comes in an overall very nice (albeit clearly used ie. worn-), condition (and is executed in an attractive letter-type!) and shows the clear evidence of having been used ie. worn (see pictures). The disc shows the bearers'-blood-group-type (Type 0) (something that was more often but not always seen on these 'coded' ID-discs and shows a clearly stamped bearers-numeral that reads: '1220'). Moreover, does it show a stamped capital 'T'-character (for which I could not find an explanation). The disc was never cleaned nor polished (it is still a bit stained and/or dirty). The disc originates from a private household where it was recently uncovered. The back shows a 'scratched-out' name or alike. Simply a very attractive and honest 'coded' WH (Luftwaffe-) ie. 'Fallschirmjäger'-related ID-disc that is IMO priced according to its unmistaken rarity and/or desirability!
Aluminium-based-, \'Polizei\' visor-cap eagle, being a maker- (ie. \'F.K.S.\'-) marked example for usage on the \'Polizei\' (ie. police) visor-caps (ie. \'Schirmmützen\') and that comes in a \'virtually mint- ie. unissued\' condition This is an aluminium-based-, 'Polizei' visor-cap eagle being a nicely maker- (ie. 'F.K.S.'-) marked example, as was intended for usage on the various 'Polizei' (ie. police) visor-caps (ie. 'Schirmmützen') and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. 'virtually mint- ie. unissued'-), condition. The very detailed piece is executed in bright-silver-coloured aluminium and retains both its two (copper-based-) prongs (which were never bent and which are naturally still functional). The detail on the fairly 'frosted' piece is simply extraordinary: it just shows some minimal dust ie. tarnish simply caused by decades of storage only. Hard to find a more attractive example for a more interesting price!

Armshield (of the rarely seen second pattern!) as executed in the neat \'BeVo\'-weave pattern, depicting the interwoven \'Cyrillic\' characters: \'TB\' as was intended for a Russian volunteer within the \'Terek Cossacks\' The shield is in a very nice (ie. virtually mint-/unissued- and/or-) condition and comes as 'straightly cut of the role': it shows the black-/blue-coloured shield with above the interwoven 'Cyrillic' characters: 'TB'. Simply a truly rarely encountered piece of eastern volunteer related insignia: one of the more harder to encounter specimen of the colourfull series!

Armshield as executed in the neat \'BeVo\'-weave pattern, depicting the interwoven \'Cyrillic\' characters: \'BA\' (as was intended for the Russian volunteers serving within the \'Don Cossacks\') The very attractive arm-shield shows the red- and blue-coloured shield with above the interwoven 'Cyrillic' characters: 'BA' (done in silver-white linnen). This particular example is neatly woven in the so-called: 'BeVo'-weave technique and comes as being straightly 'cut-off from the roll': it can be graded: 'virtually mint'. These - original - 'official' arm-shields as executed in 'BeVo'-type weave (ie. German manufacture by the company of 'BeVo') can be easily considered 'very scarce'. I deem that I have priced this (virtually mint-/unissued-) example accordingly. Simply a neat example of a Cossack-related arm-shield: one of the more harder to encounter specimen of the colourful series!
Armshield as executed in the neat \'BeVo\'-weave pattern, depicting the interwoven \'Cyrillic\' characters: \'BA\' (as was intended for the Russian volunteers serving within the \'Kuban Cossacks\') The shield comes in a trimmed condition and shows the red- and blue-coloured shield with above the interwoven 'Cyrillic' characters: 'BA' (done in silver-white linnen). I deem that this example was truly worn as such: it does show some minimal age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a scarcely encountered piece of eastern-volunteer-related insignia: one of the more harder to encounter specimen of the colourful series!
Attactive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), early-war-period (ie. \'M36\'- ie.: \'M40\'-model- ie. rounded-style-) \'cyphered\', EM-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Soldat u. Mitglied des Unteroffiziersvorschule XI\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Heeres), I deem early-war-period- (ie. \'M36\'- ie.: \'M40\'-model- ie. rounded-style-) \'cyphered\', enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as piped in the white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and with certainty worn by! - a: \'Soldat u. Mitglied des Unteroffiziersvorschule XI\' (or: soldier ie. student who was a trainee within the infantry-related NCO-school, numbered: \'11\') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat strap - which has the \'standard\'-pattern- and/or darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based \'upperdeck\' - shows the neat white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured- and/or \'silk-like\'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap - which measures approximately 11,2 cms. in length each - comes without a tongue attached: it was carefully \'cut-off\' a tunic (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap shows the nicely machine-embroidered, Gothic-styled, \'U\'- and/or: \'V\'-cyphers and/or: Roman-styled: \'XI\'-numerals (naturally also executed in white-coloured linnen ie. wool). The strap shows - as stated above - only moderate usage ie. wear (just some moderate age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present). In any case is this a nice occasion to acquire a very attractive and desirable EM-type, \'Infanterie\'-related \'Unteroffiziersvorschule\'-shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single specimen!

The neat strap - which has the \'standard\'-pattern- and/or darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based \'upperdeck\' - shows the neat white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured- and/or woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap - which measures approximately 11,8 cms. in length each - comes with its period tongue attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap shows the nicely machine-embroidered, Gothic-styled, \'W\'-cypher and/or: Roman-styled: \'VI\'-numerals (naturally also executed in white-coloured linnen ie. wool). The strap shows - as stated above - only moderate usage ie. wear (just some moderate age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present). Moreover, does it show some minimal glue-remains on its back simply caused by having been glued into an album or scrapbook once. In any case is this a nice occasion to acquire a very attractive and desirable EM-type, \'Infanterie\'-related \'Wehrkreis\'-shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single specimen!
Attractive (albeit non-maker-marked- and IMO early war-period!) example of a black wound-badge (or: \'Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz\') - overall nice (albeit moderately used ie. worn-) condition! This is an attractive (albeit non-maker-marked- and IMO early war-period-) example of a black wound-badge (or: 'Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz'), in overall nice (albeit moderately used ie. worn-) condition. The badge shows some moderate wear ie. age but retains most of its original black (and fairly 'shiny'!) painted ie. sprayed, black-coloured surface (see pictures). The wound-badge is as stated a non-maker-marked example which is executed in copper-based metal. Of course are the (regular- ie. thin-shaped- and/or also copper-based-) pin and/or (typical!) catch (-set-up) fully functional and of course present. This piece has never been cleaned nor polished: it shows some minimal dirt and dust (mainly visible on the back). Simply an attractive, non-maker-marked and with certainty early war-period black wound-badge: hard to find a nicer example for a more interesting price!
Attractive (IMO) DAF- (ie. \'Deutsches Arbeitsfront\') related day-badge (ie. \'tinnie\'), as was issued to commemorate the: \'Saarkundgebung - Oberhausen-Reid - 10.6.1934\' This is an attractive (IMO) DAF- (ie. 'Deutsches Arbeitsfront') related 'tinnie' (ie. 'Veranstaltungsabzeichen') that was issued to commemorate a specific DAF-rally ie. gathering named the: 'Saarkundgebung - Oberhausen-Reid - 10.6.1934' and that comes in an overall very nice (albeit issued ie. moderately worn-), condition. The detailed and/or pronounced badge - which is executed in silverish-coloured (ie. tin-based) metal - truly shows extraordinary detail and was almost certainly never cleaned nor polished. The (non-maker-marked-) piece depicts a swasitka upon which a worker (loosing his chains) is pictured and showing the text: 'Saarkundgebung - Oberhausen-Reid - 10.6.1934'. The badge comes naturally mounted on its (functional) pin-/catch set-up. Simply an attractive, DAF-related 'tinnie' ie. 'Veranstaltungsabzeichen'!
Attractive - and moderately used ie. once cap-attached! - SA- (ie. Sturmabteilungen-) related cap-badge as was specifically intended for usage by the SA-staffmembers serving within the: \'SA-Gruppe Hochland\' This is an attractive - and moderately used ie. once cap-attached but nevertheless not that easily found! - SA- (ie. Sturmabteilungen-) related cap-badge (ie. 'Mützenabzeichen') depicting an: 'Edelweiss'-flower coupled with a swastika-device as was specifically intended for usage by the SA-staffmembers serving within the: 'SA-Gruppe Hochland' and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used- ie. worn and/or once cap-attached-), condition. The neat piece is executed in silver-toned, 'Buntmetall'-based metal and shows a (golden-toned) swastika-device attached (that shows a black-painted swastika as can be seen on the pictures. The neat piece is totally void of a makers'- ie. 'RzM'-designation and does show some moderate age, wear- and/or staining: it comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin- ie. pin-/catch(set-up). Simply a great occasion to acquire a 100% original 'SA'- ie. 'Gruppe Hochland'-related cap-badge for a competitive price!
Attractive - albeit as more often unmarked - example of a pre-war-period SA (ie. \'Sturmabteilungen\') copper- (ie. \'Messing\'-) based belt-buckle, being a \'variant\'-pattern- ie. \'two-pieced\'-example This is a truly attractive - albeit as more often seen unmarked - example of a pre-war-period-, so-called: SA (ie. 'Sturmabteilungen') copper- (ie. 'Messing'-) based belt-buckle, being a 'variant'-pattern- ie. 'two-pieced'- example having a separate (and/or bright shiny- and chromed-steel-based 'front-plate' attached), that comes in an overall nice, albeit moderately worn and/or totally uncleaned, condition. The buckle - having a 'regular'-shaped swastika - is still a bit dirty and shows some dust and/or staining as acquired over the years. The buckle is of the 'variant'-pattern- (ie. 'two-pieced'-construction) and was (luckily) never cleaned nor polished. The piece - which is void of any makers'-mark or logo (as is more often encountered) - shows nice and/or pronounced detail but also shows the obvious signs of having been moderately worn (it is still a bit dusty as found and comes as stored for decades). Simply an attractive example of an SA belt-buckle that is IMO accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit clearly issued and/or tunic-removed - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (or DKiG ie. German Cross in gold), that comes in an overall very nice, albeit used- ie. worn condition This is a truly attractive - albeit clearly issued and/or tunic-removed - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres) 'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold' (or DKiG ie. German Cross in gold), that comes in an overall very nice, albeit used- ie. moderately worn-, condition. The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (fully undamaged!) field-grey (ie. typical 'Heeres'- or 'Waffen-SS'-type-) woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Heeres' (ie. 'Waffen-SS'-) member. The piece shows some minimal age ie. wear but is totally void of any damage. It shows a golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which is void of an inked makers’-mark as more often encountered - is, however, not 'backed' (something that is more often seen). It also shows the signs of once having been tunic-attached. Simply a very nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that IMO is accordingly priced. Simply a stunning example that is actually hard to be upgraded!

The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (minimally damaged) field-grey-coloured (ie. typical 'Heeres'- or 'Waffen-SS'-type-) woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Heeres' (ie. 'Waffen-SS'-) member. The piece shows evident age ie. wear but is void of any real damage. It shows a golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece has lost its (IMO once present) paper-based 'backing' (something that is more often seen). It also shows the clear signs of once having been tunic-attached. Still a nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is IMO accordingly priced.
Attractive - albeit clearly issued and/or tunic-removed! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Luftwaffe) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (ie. DKiG or German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice, albeit moderately used- ie. worn, condition This is a truly attractive - albeit clearly issued and/or tunic-removed! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Luftwaffe) 'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold in Stoff' (or: cloth-based DKiG ie. German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (fully undamaged!) bluish-grey-coloured- (ie. typical 'Luftwaffe'-type-) woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Luftwaffe'-soldier. The piece shows some minimal age ie. wear but is totally void of any real damage. It shows a golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which is void of an inked makers'-mark (ie. logo) on its back as is more often encountered - is, nicely 'backed' with black-coloured 'backing'-paper (something that is more often seen). It also shows the obvious signs of having been once tunic-attached. Simply a very nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is I deem accordingly priced. Simply a stunning 'Luftwaffe'-type example that is actually very hard to be upgraded!

The piece - which is void of an inked makers'-mark (ie. logo) on its back as is more often encountered - is, nicely 'backed' with greyish-black-coloured paper (something that is more often seen). It also shows the obvious signs of having been once tunic-attached. Simply a very nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that IMO is accordingly priced.

Attractive - albeit clearly issued- ie. worn! - example of a WH (Heeres) field-grey-coloured- and/or aluminium-based belt-buckle, being a maker- (ie. \'Richard Sieper u. S.\'-) marked example that comes mounted on its leather-based tab This is an attractive - albeit clearly issued- ie. worn! - example of a WH (Heeres) field-grey-coloured- and/or alumnium-based belt-buckle, being a neatly maker- (ie. 'Richard Sieper u. Söhne'-) marked and/or: '1938'-dated example that comes mounted on its natural-coloured leather-based tab and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly issued- ie. worn-), condition. The buckle was with certainty issued and worn: it only retains the remains of its field-grey-coloured finish but was never (recently) cleaned nor polished (as can be seen on the pictures). The inside of the buckle - which shows the (vague) impressed makers'-designation: 'R.S.&S.' - shows some obvious dust caused by over more than 70 years of storage. The leather-based tab is naturally also still fully functional and souple: it shows the oval-shaped 'Richard Sieper u. Söhne - Lüdensheid - 1938'-stamp (as can be seen on the pictures) and comes in an equally nicely preserved condition overall (it was IMO never greased nor oiled but does show some age ie. staining). The piece was recently found at a private household and was never before part of a collection. Simply an attractive, 'Richard Sieper u. Söhne'-marked-, 'Heeres'-example that is IMO priced according to its worn condition!
Attractive - albeit clearly used but nevertheless fairly scarcely encountered! - so-called: \'HJ\' (\'Hitlerjugend\') district-triangle (ie. \'Gebietsdreieck\') entitled: \'Mitte Sachsen\' This is a 'male'-specimen, indicating that it is neatly woven in yellowish-golden-coloured linnen on a black-coloured- (and also linnen-based-) background. This example has lost its paper-based so-called: 'RzM-etiket' over the years and was a piece that was clearly worn ie. once tunic-attached: the stitching-remains are still clearly present. It does, however, shows some minimal age and/or staining, simply caused by decades of storage and moderate wear - see pictures. The triangle on offer here is one of the more scarcely encountered examples of the extensive 'Gebietsdreiecken'-series. In any case an attractive, male-type 'HJ' ('Hitlerjugend') district-triangle that is IMO priced according to its comparative scarcity and/or desirability!
Attractive - albeit clearly used but nevertheless very rarely encountered! - so-called: \'HJ\' (\'Hitlerjugend\') district-triangle (ie. \'Gebietsdreieck\') entitled: \'Ost Pommern\' This is a 'male'-specimen, indicating that it is neatly woven in yellowish-golden-coloured linnen on a black-coloured- (and also linnen-based-) background.

The triangle on offer here is one of the more obscure- and rarely encountered examples of the extensive 'Gebietsdreiecken'-series. In any case an attractive, male-type 'HJ' ('Hitlerjugend') district-triangle that is IMO priced according to its comparative rarity and/or desirability!
Attractive - albeit clearly used ie. worn - \'HJ\' (\'Hitlerjugend\') district-triangle (ie. \'Gebietsdreieck\') being an example that misses its \'RzM-etiket\' and that is entitled: \'West Mittelrhein\' This is a 'male'-specimen indicating that it is neatly woven in golden-yellow-coloured linnen on a black-coloured- (and also linnen-based-) background. This example regrettably misses its so-called: 'RzM-etiket' (as can be seen on the pictures) and was I deem clearly used- and/or once tunic- (ie. shirt-) attached: the triangle has been carefully removed and still shows some minimal stitching- ie. thread-remains. The triangle shows moderate age ie. staining simply caused by moderate wear and decades of storage (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive, male-type 'HJ' ('Hitlerjugend') district-triangle that is accordingly priced!

'Tätigkeitsabzeichen') having a golden-yellow-couloured 'Goldkordel' period-attached as was specifically intended for usage by: 'Flugzeugpersonal' (or: aircraft maintenance-staff) and that comes in an overall nice- (and most certainly worn- ie. once tunic-attached-), condition. The badge - which has the neat 'golden' (ie. yellow) 'cord-like border' (ie. 'Goldkordel') attached - signified that the bearer had a one years'-service in this speciality. The piece is nicely machine-woven on a LW bluish-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based background and shows some minor staining and fair wear. These badges ranked actually amongst the 'award-category' and came together with an official award-document and had to be properly entered in both 'Soldbuch' and 'Wehrpass'. Simply an attractive - and not that often encountered! - LW-'Tätigkeits-Abzeichen' that is not that easily found!

Attractive - albeit clearly used! - \'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse\' (or: Iron Cross 1st class) being a non-maker-marked (and fairly early war-period!) example as was - I deem - produced by the desirable \'Hersteller\' (ie. maker): \'C.E.Juncker\' The attractive - albeit surely issued- ie. clearly worn - iron cross is a typical minimally-vaulted- (ie. somewhat converse-shaped) example that has never been cleaned nor polished. It retains a very attractive age-patina and/or nice, pronounced detail as to be expected for an IC by this desirable maker. This example - which is as stated above a typical non-maker-marked specimen - was - I deem - produced by the desirable maker: 'C.E. Juncker' as was based in the town of Berlin (ie. 'Hersteller 2') and that comes naturally firmly mounted onto its original- (and naturally unaltered and/or fully functional) flute-shaped pin and/or typical catch (-set-up). The cross - which is a magnetic example as more often found - shows a neatly 'blackened'- and/or fairly 'satin-like' (ie. shiny!) inner-core that shows some (minimal) paint-damage within the swastika-area (as can be seen on the pictures): it has, however, clearly been issued and/or moderately worn and is still a bit stained and/or dirty (it was never cleaned though and has lost its 'off-factory'-applied polished sides ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten'). I deem that I have priced this attractive, 'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse' by the 'C.E. Juncker'-company according to its moderately used and/or totally untouched condition: a pristine example would most cerainly fetch much more than my asking-price!
Attractive - albeit clearly used- and/or carefully cap-removed! - WH (Heeres) \'BeVo\'-woven cap-cocarde (ie. wreath or: \'Schirmmützenkokarde\') as was intended for usage on the \'old-style\' visor-caps (or: \'Knautsch- o. alter Art Schirmmützen\') The attractive and truly worn piece is nicely 'flat-wire'-woven (ie. is executed in the 'Bevo'-weave style) and is executed in bright-silver-coloured thread on a darker-green-coloured- and/or linnen-based background. The piece was with certainty used as such and was carefully cap-removed: it was nicely pre-folded- and/or trimmed and still shows some of its thread- and/or stitching-remains with which it was once cap-attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece can naturally ideally serve as a spare-part and will fit nicely on any 'alter-Art Schirmmütze'. It should be noted that these 'BeVo'-woven cap-cocardes can easily be graded 'scarce'. I deem that I have priced this neat piece according to its truly used- and cap-removed condition!

Attractive - albeit clearly used- and/or worn - example of a steel-based- (and/or originally silver-coloured-) Waffen-SS belt-buckle, being a neatly: \'RzM 155/43 SS\'- (= \'Assmann u. Söhne\'-) marked example This is an attractive example of a steel-based- (and/or originally silver-coloured-) Waffen-SS belt-buckle, being a neatly: 'RzM 155/43 SS'- (= 'Assmann u. Söhne'-) marked example, in overall nice, albeit clearly used- and/or worn, condition. The buckle has regrettably lost most of its original silver-coloured finish (only minimal remains are visible ie. present esp. on its back - see pictures). The overall surface shows clear evidence of having being worn and shows some dirt and/or staining (it has IMO however not been polished nor cleaned). The buckle - which is naturally a 100% garuanteed original example - has a very detailed appearance and still has an overall nice age-patina. As stated is the buckle a neatly maker-marked example that bears the makers-designation: 'RzM 155/43 SS' (as is visible under the roller-attachment as usual - see pictures). As certainly known are these genuine SS-buckles as produced by the: 'Assmann u. Söhne'-company getting really hard to find: simply a nice and/or very detailed example that is IMO accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit clearly used- ie. worn! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' being a maker-marked example as executed in \'Buntmetall\' (ie. \'Tombak\') as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'Schwerin - Berlin\' This is an attractive - albeit clearly worn but still detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen' (or: destroyers'-war-badge) being a clearly maker-marked- (and/or: fairly 'high-quality'-produced!) example that is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' and that comes in overall nice- (albeit clearly issued- and/or truly worn-), condition. The very detailed and/or pronounced badge retains most of its golden- (ie. silver-) toned finish and is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' (ie. 'Tombak'): it comes of course mounted on its unaltered- and functional (flute-shaped and neatly horizontally-mounted) pin and/or catch. The with certainty 'high-quality'-produced badge (that also retains it so-called: 'Gegenhaken' that might have been period-repaired) shows on its back the makers'-designation: 'Schwerin - Berlin 68' and was - I deem - never cleaned nor polished: it is just a tiny bit dusty ie. dirty as recently found (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that this truly worn example is accordingly priced: a better-preserved example will fetch much more than my asking-price!
Attractive - albeit clearly used- ie. worn! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' being a maker-marked example as executed in \'Buntmetall\' (ie. \'Tombak\') as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'Schwerin - Berlin\' This is an attractive - albeit clearly worn but still detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen' (or: destroyers'-war-badge) being a clearly maker-marked- (and/or: fairly 'high-quality'-produced!) example that is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' and that comes in overall nice- (albeit clearly issued- and/or truly worn-), condition.

Attractive - albeit clearly worn! - maker- (ie. \'L/11\'-) marked example of a black-class wound-badge (or: \'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Schwarz\') as being produced by the maker: \'Wilhelm Deumer\' The black-class (and non-magnetic) WB on offer here is only moderately used and does shows some moderate wear and/or aging (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge truly retains most of its original, black-coloured- and/or somewhat 'shiny' finish: it was simply nicely preserved over the years. The badge is as stated neatly maker-marked with the makers'-designation: 'L/11' on its back (as can be seen on the pictures) signifying that it deals with an early-period (and 'Buntmetall'-based) specimen that was produced by the: 'Wilhelm Deumer'-company as based in the town of Lüdenscheid. Of course, are the (regular- ie. thin-shaped-) pin and/or (typical) catch (-set-up) fully functional and of course present. This piece has never been cleaned nor polished: it shows some minimal dust and/or staining as to be expected. Hard to upgrade this moderately used ie. worn example!
Attractive - albeit empty - WH (Heeres- ie. Waffen-SS-) carton-based medal-pouch nicely marked: \'LDO\' and executed in typical: \'Zellstoff\'-based paper as was intended for a: \'Panzerkampf-Abzeichen in Silber\' (or: silver-class PAB) This is a truly unusual and with certainty scarcely encountered item: a WH (Heeres- ie. Waffen-SS) carton-based medal-pouch, nicely marked: 'LDO' and executed in typical, beige-coloured- and/or: 'Zellstoff'-based paper as was intended for storage of a: 'Panzerkampf-Abzeichen in Silber' (or silver-class PAB) and that comes in an overall very nice (albeit moderately used and/or I deem issued-), condition. The pouch shows a red-coloured ink-stamp on its front and is additionally marked on its back with the expected text: 'Die Herstellung von..... etc.'. The pouch is naturally fully complete and/or still functional: it just shows some minimal staining ie. usage- ie. storage-marks. I am convinced that this 'simply' pouch is actually x-times rarer to find than the actual badge itself. Simply a very desirable piece of unmistaken scarcity!

Klasse in Bronze\' being a non-maker-marked specimen that comes in an overall nice- (ie. I deem issued- and/or just moderately used-), condition. The neat pouch comes as stated above in an overall nice condition but is totally void of a printed makers\'-designation on its back. The neat (typical \'Zellstoff\'-based and/or: yellowish-brown-coloured) carton-based pouch measures approximately: 11,8 x 8,8 cms. and is fully complete: it just shows a tiny repair (done with \'Cellotape\') as can be seen on the pictures. it can of course excellenty be used to complete a: \'Tapferkeits- und Verdienstauszeichnung ohne Schwerter - 2. Klasse in Bronze\'-set!

The etui comes in a very fine and fully complete condition: the silver-rimmed cross that figures on the etui's top is in a very nice and totally undamaged condition whereas the beige-white-coloured- and velvet-like interior is also fully present and in place (it does, however, show some minimal age and/or staining and does show a (vaguely-presen) imprint of the cross it once held as can be seen in the pictures). I deem that this attactive IC-etui is accordingly priced: it just needs an equally nicely preserved iron-cross to complete!

The pouch comes as stated above in an overall nice condition and shows on its back the printed makers'-designation of the: 'Richard Simm & Söhne'-company as based in the town of Gablonz (as is printed on its back as stated above). The neat (typical 'Zellstoff'-based and/or: reddish-brown-coloured) carton-based pouch measures approximately: 11 x 6 cms. and is fully complete: it can of course excellenty be used to complete a: 'Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42'-set!
Attractive - albeit heavingly worn! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' being a maker-marked example as executed in \'Buntmetall\' (ie. \'Tombak\') as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'Schwerin - Berlin\' This is an attractive - albeit heavingly worn but still detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen' (or: destroyers'-war-badge) being a clearly maker-marked- (and/or 'high-quality'-produced!) example that is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' and that comes in overall nice- (albeit clearly issued- and truly worn-), condition. The very detailed and/or pronounced badge has regrettably lost its golden-toned finish and is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' (ie. 'Tombak') and comes of course mounted on its unaltered- and functional (flute-shaped and neatly horizontally-mounted) pin and/or catch. The with certainty 'high-quality'-produced badge (that retains it so-called: 'Gegenhaken') shows on its back the makers'-designation: 'Schwerin - Berlin 68' and was - I deem - never cleaned nor polished: it is just a tiny bit dusty ie. dirty as recently found (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that this truly worn example is accordingly priced: a better-preserved example will fetch much more than my asking-price!
Attractive - albeit incomplete - WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) \'Krim\'-campaign-shield (as was produced by a - by me - unidentified maker) and that comes in a presumably issued albeit still \'virtually mint\', condition This is an attractive - albeit regrettably incomplete! - example of a non-maker-marked, WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) 'Krim'-campaign-shield as was produced by a by me unidentified maker (ie. possibly an example as was procuced by the 'Wilhelm Deumer'-company) and that comes in a probably issued- albeit still 'virtually mint'- (and with certainty never tunic-attached-), condition. The shield - that comes without 'backing' nor 'backing-plate' - retains all its four (never bent!) prongs and comes in a truly wonderful and/or untouched condition and was with certainty never worn nor used (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - which is non-converse-shaped as more often - truly retains most of its original, bright-golden-coloured- and/or somewhat 'matted' finish ie. bronze-like appearance and was (I deem) never cleaned nor polished: it does show some minimal storage-age only (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive and desirable 'Heeres ie. Waffen-SS'-pattern example that was presumably issued but simply never worn. Naturally did I price this attractive specimen according to its incomplete condition!
Attractive - albeit issued and/or tunic-removed! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres- or: Waffen-SS) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (ie. DKiG or German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice, albeit clearly used- ie. worn, condition This is a truly attractive - albeit clearly issued and/or most cerainly tunic-removed! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres- or: Waffen-SS) 'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold in Stoff' (or: cloth-based DKiG ie. German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly used- ie. worn- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion and linnen-based thread - has a field-grey-coloured- (ie. somewhat stained-) woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Heeres or Waffen-SS'-soldier. The piece shows clear age ie. wear but is void of any real damage (some tiny bits of the outer thin-shaped- and/or braid-based piping are however missing (as can be seen on the pictures). It shows a golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which is void of an inked makers'-mark (ie. logo) on its back as is more often encountered - is not 'backed' (something that is more often seen). It also shows the obvious signs of having been once tunic-attached. Simply an attractive and clearly worn example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is I deem accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - IMO mid-war period, so-called: \'M43\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps, as was intended for a: \'Soldat der Gebirgsjäger- o. Jäger-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably minimally mis-matched - IMO mid-war period, so-called: 'M43'-pattern, WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps, as was piped in the neat green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - a: 'Soldat der Gebirgsjäger- o. Jäger-Truppen' (or simple soldier who served within a mountain-troopers unit ie. regiment), in an overall nice (IMO only moderately used-) condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which are piped in the desirable green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour - measure approximately 11 cms. in length each and have the neat (and desirable) 'silk-like'-type piping attached. The straps - which originates from an older shoulderstrap-collection - are fully 'text-book' in all facets and were IMO only moderately used and/or worn. The straps come naturally mounted on their functional tongues and show no defaults nor real damage but do show minimal age and/or staining as mentioned above. It should be noted that these standard-type, 'Gebirgsjäger' ie. 'Jäger'-piped EM-straps are not that easily encountered and can easily be graded 'scarce'. Simply an attractive - and truly minimally mismatched - EM-type shoulderstrap-pair, that was intended for a: 'Soldat der Gebirgsjäger- o. Jäger-Truppen': I deem that this pair is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of early- (ie. pre-war-) period, WH (Heeres) black woolen-based- and/or bright-pink-piped \'Panzer\'-collar-tabs, each having an \'aluminium\'-based skull-device (ie. \'Totenkopf\') period-attached The attractive - and IMO quite early- ie. pre-war-period! - collar-tab- (ie. 'Kragenspiegel'-) pair is as stated above minimally mis-matched: both tabs show an aluminium-based (and identical!) skull-device, period-attached: both skulls have both their (typical, early- and copper-based-) prongs in place and are still firmly attached onto the tabs. For some unknown reason does one of the tabs misses its 'backing': the other tab shows the brownish-yellow-coloured- (and/or: typical 'buckram'-based-) 'backing' as to be expected. The pair - which has the neat (early- ie. pre-war-period-) woolen-type- and/or bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured piping attached - comes in a clearly issued- and/or once tunic-attached-, condition: the set was once stitched onto a tunic and was carefully tunic-removed (it still shows some remains of the stitching as can be seen on the pictures). As such, it would be an excellent pair to restore any black-coloured-, early- (ie. pre-) war-period Panzer so-called: 'wrap-around'-tunic. This pair was recently found at a German private household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive, original and fully matching, early- ie. pre-war-period-, 'Panzer'-collar-tab-set that can easily be graded 'rare' and that is nowadays almost impossible to encounter!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of later-war-period, WH (Heeres) so-called: \'M44\'-style, \'simplified\'-, EM-type shoulderstraps, as was intended for usage by a: \'Soldat eines Kavallerie- o. Aufklärungs-Abteilung o. Rgts.\' The neat straps - which are approximately 11 cms. sized in length each as more often encountered - have the 'standard-type'- and/or: typical brownish-green-like-, field-grey coloured and/or: woolen-based 'upperdecks' and show the neat golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured- and/or 'silk-like'-type piping ie. branchcolour, attached. The straps are constructed following the typical '1944 cloth-minimising production-manner', using different shades of wool and/or lesser quality material. The straps were IMO never used nor worn and can easily be graded 'virtually mint ie. unissued'. It should be noted that all 'M44'-style, enlisted-mens'-type straps are actually quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'scarce': the ones as intended for the soldiers who served within the: 'Kavallerie- o. Aufklärungs-Truppen' even more so! Simply a superb occasion to acquire a very attractive and fully 'text-book', M44-styled, enlisted-mens'-type pair as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat eines Kavallerie- o. Aufklärungs-Abteilung o. Regiments': great to complete any M44-model tunic or to be stored in a shoulderstrap-collection. The pair is as stated above minimally mis-matched: they differ in tiny detail something that is more often seen with these M44-pattern shoulderstraps. It will be hard to upgrade this attractive pair!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of mid-war-period, so-called: \'M43\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstraps that comes with its attached \'Übershube\'-pair as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier des Infanterie-Regiments 115\' The attractive - and 'text-book' albeit minimally mis-matched - WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and measures approximately 12 cms. in length. The straps have the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- and/or: desirable silk-type piping attached (as is more often encountered with these mid-war-period shoulderstrap-pairs) and were intended for usage by a junior-sergeant who served within the infantry-regiment, numbered: '115' (something that can naturally easily be deducted from the attached 'Übershube'-pair). The shoulderstraps - which originate from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recenly acquired - are typical 'standard-issued' examples that have the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' that show the bluish-grey-coloured- (ie. sub-dued-type) NCO-braid attached: they were I deem only moderately used ie. worn and do show some minimal wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues and came with a (matching) pair of (field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based-) so-called: shoulderstrap-slip-ons (ie. 'Übershuben') attached bearing both the signification: '115' (as executed in equally white-coloured so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' done in wool as can be seen on the pictures). Both the shoulderstraps and/or: 'Übershuben' come in a wonderful- and/or totally undamaged condition and will be hard to be upgraded (as can be seen on the pictures). These desirable 'M43'-pattern, army-infantry-related NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the 'weisser'-coloured branchcolour can nowadays easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. Simply an attractive pair that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier des Infanterie-Regiments 115'!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of RAD (ie. \'Reichsarbeitsdienst\') EM (ie. NCO-)type shoulderstraps (being of the third pattern as was used in the period between 1942-45) as was specifically intended for a: \'RAD-Hauptvormann\' This is an attractive - albeit minimally mismatched but actually not that easily found! - pair of typical RAD (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst') EM- (ie. NCO-) type shoulderstraps (being of the third and final pattern as was used in the period between 1942-45) as was intended for usage by a: 'RAD-Hauptvormann' and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. clearly used- and/or once tunic-attached-), condition. The neat schoulderstraps have the 'standard'-pattern, earthen-brown-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' and show the twisted, silver-coloured and/or braid-based piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps measure approximately 10,5 cms. in length each and are of the regular-issued - (ie. non-private-production-) type. The straps come mounted onto their period tongues and come in a very nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition, overall. Both straps show two (identical, aluminium-based) pips attached whereas one of the straps has a double black-and-silver-coloured- (ie. striped-) and/or braid-based 'Lasche' (firmly) attached denoting the soldiers-rank of: 'RAD-Hauptvormann'. The pair shows - as stated above - only moderate wear and/or age but is void of any damage (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a great occasion to acquire a desirable (and hard to find!) 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'-related, EM- (ie. NCO-) type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by a: 'RAD-Hauptvormann'!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres) NCO-type (ie. \'M40-/M43\'-pattern) shoulderstraps as piped in the white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an: \'Unteroffizer eines Infanterie-Regiments\' This is an attractive - albeit mimimally mis-matched but nevertheless nowadays not that easily found! - pair of WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-) war-period, so-called: 'M40-/M43'-pattern, NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizer eines Infanterie-Regiments' (or: junior-sergeant who served within an army infantry-regiment ie. unit-) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit - I deem - minimally used ie. worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which are approximately 11 cms. sized in length - have the 'standard-type'- and/or field-grey-coloured 'upperdecks'. The straps - which have the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- and desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached - show the (bluish-coloured- ie. sub-dued) NCO-braid attached (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that this is a typical 'standard-issued'- (ie. non-privately-purchased- nor tailor-made!) pair that was only minimally used- ie. worn. The neat straps - which came mounted onto their period tongues - show as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). This shoulderstrap-pair originated from an older shoulderstrap ie. board-collection that I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply an very attractive and/or: early- ie. mid-war-period and/or 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by an: 'Unteroffizer eines Infanterie-Regiments'!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-) war-period, \'M36\'-pattern (pointed-styled- and \'cyphered\') so-called: NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier des Nachrichten-Regiments 47\' This is an attractive - albeit truly minimally mis-matched but nevertheless scarcely found! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-) war-period, 'M36'-pattern (pointed-styled-), 'cyphered' NCO-type shoulderstraps (being a pair having no branchcolour ie. piping as per regulation) as was intended for usage by an: 'Unteroffizier des Nachrichten-Regiments 47' (or: junior-sergeant who served within the army-signals-regiment, numbered: '47') and that comes in overall very nice- (albeit moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The neat straps - which are both approximately 11,6 cms. sized in length - have the 'standard-pattern' and/or: dark-green-coloured- and woolen-based 'upperdecks' and have as stated above no piping nor branchcolour attached: they are of the 'generic pattern' (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstraps show the ('standard'- ie. 'dotted'-pattern), silver-coloured NCO-braid period-attached. Moreover, do they show the neat, bright-yellow- (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) coloured and/or machine-embroidered: '4'- and/or: '7'-numerals (which are executed in so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' as to be expected). The pair comes mounted onto its original tongues and does just show some minimal age-, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a neat - and I deem quite early- (ie. pre- or early-war-) period - 'Heeres' NCO-type, shoulderstrap-pair that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier des Nachrichten-Regiments 47': I deem that I have priced this attractive - and desirable! - pair, accordingly!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, \'M36\'-pattern- (ie. rounded-styled), \'cyphered\' shoulderstraps, as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier des Artillerie-Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 32\' This is truly attractive - albeit regrettably minimally mis-matched but nevertheless still truly rarely encountered! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period-, so-called: 'M36'-pattern- (ie. rounded-styled), 'cyphered' shoulderstraps as piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and clearly used by! - an: 'Unteroffizier des Artillerie-Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 32' (or junior-sergeant who served within the artillery-observers regiment ie. unit, numbered: '32') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The straps - which are both approximately 11,1 cms. sized in length - have the 'standard-type' and/or darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdecks' and show the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured (and woolen-type) piping attached. Both shoulderstraps show the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) Gothic-styled-, so-called: 'B'-cyphers and/or: '3'- and '2'-numerals. Next to this they show the silver-coloured NCO-braid attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Unteroffizier'. Both 'cyphers' are executed in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected (see pictures). The straps - which come mounted on their functional tongues - show as stated above only moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is however visible and/or present). The pair was with certainly always together and was worn as such as a pair (this although the fact that both pieces are not completely matching). It should, however, be noted that all 'cyphered' so-called: 'Beobachtungs-Abteilungen'-shoulderstraps are very desirable and can easily be regarded 'rare', even more when they are in such a nicely preserved condition. In any case a very attractive (and truly rarely encountered!) early- ie. pre-war-period, 'cyphered Heeres NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair that is IMO priced according to its obvious desirability and/or unmistaken rarity!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres), IMO mid-war-period (ie. \'M43\'-pattern-) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps, as piped in the bright-yellow-coloured branchcolour, as was intended for a: \'Soldat der Nachrichten-Truppen\' The attractive shoulderstraps - which have the field-grey-coloured- and/or: typical, woolen-based 'upperdecks' as to be expected - have the desirable bright-yellow- (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measure approximately 11,7 cms. in length each. The straps come naturally mounted on their original tongues and are in an overall nice ie. fully 'text-book' condition overall: the straps show some minimal age, wear and/or obvious staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which were intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Nachrichten-Truppen' (or: simple army signals'-soldier) - show only minimal usage and/or wear (they are however not damaged or alike: they just show the minimal signs of having been used). The pair is as stated above minimally mis-matched but was with certainly always together and was worn as such as a pair. It should be noted that these bright-yellow-piped-, enlisted-mens'-type-, 'Nachrichten'-related shoulderstraps are quite desirable and can nowadays easily be graded 'scarce': I deem that this attractive army-signals pair is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres), IMO mid-war-period (ie. \'M43\'-pattern-) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps, as piped in the white-coloured branchcolour, as was intended for a: \'Soldat der Infanterie-Truppen\' The attractive shoulderstraps - which have the field-grey-coloured- and/or: typical, woolen-based 'upperdecks' as to be expected - have the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measure approximately 11 cms. in length each. The straps come naturally mounted on their original tongues and are in an overall nice ie. fully 'text-book' condition overall: the straps show some minimal age, wear and/or obvious staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which were intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Infanterie-Truppen' (or: simple army infantry-soldier) - show only minimal usage and/or wear (they are however not damaged or alike: they just show the minimal signs of having been used). The pair is as stated above minimally mis-matched but was with certainly always together and was worn as such as a pair. It should be noted that these white-piped-, enlisted-mens'-type-, 'Infanterie'-related shoulderstraps are very desirable and can nowadays easily be graded 'scarce': this is one of those shoulderstrap-pairs that every collector is nowaydays searching-for but that is simply not that often offered for sale!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched - pair of \'cyphered\'- (and I deem early- ie. mid-war-period) WH (Kriegsmarine) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps as was intended for usage by a: \'Soldat eines Küsten-Artillerie-Abteilungs\' This is an attractive - minimally mis-matched but nevertheless not that easily encountered! - neatly \'cyphered\'- (and I deem fairly early- (ie. mid-) war-period pattern pair of enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps as was specifically intended for usage on the field-grey coloured navy-style tunics by a: \'Soldat eines Küsten-Artillerie-Abteilungs\' (or simple soldier who served within a naval coastal-artillery unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem just minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The straps - which are fully \'text-book\' in all facets - measure approximately 11,1 cms. in length (and have a width of 5,5 cms. as usually seen) have the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based \'upperdecks\' and come mounted onto their functional tongues. The straps show the neat interwoven so-called: \'crossed-anchors\'-cyphers or: \'Ziffern\' (which are both executed in golden-yellow-coloured linnen) denoting the rank of simple: \'Soldat o. Maat\'. The straps - shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining but are totally void of any damage (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that ALL \'Küstenartillerie\' insignia-pieces are actually quite hard to encounter: those \'cyphered\' examples even more so, which grades them easily as \'scarce\'. Simply an attractive \'cyphered\', naval EM-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage on the field-grey-coloured attire!
Attractive - albeit minimally mis-matched! - pair of WH (Luftwaffe), enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps as was intended for a: \'Soldat eines Flakartillerie-Regiments o. Abteilungs\' This is a neat - albeit minimally mis-matched! - pair of WH (Luftwaffe), enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstraps as was piped in the bright-red- (ie. \'hochroter\'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: \'Soldat eines Flakartillerie-Regiments o. Abteilungs\' (or: simple anti-aircraft soldier) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. I deem never used ie. \'virtually mint- ie. unissued\'-), condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which measure approximately 10 cms. in length each and that come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues - are as stated piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. \'hochroter\'-) branchcolour and have the desirable \'silk-like\'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which were most certainly always together but that are slight mismatched in certain details - have the bluish-grey-coloured and/or \'smooth\'-woolen-based \'upperdecks\' and were with certainty meant as a: \'standard-issue\'-type pair (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps show some minimal (storage) age ie. staining but are totally void of any damage. Simply a great occasion to acquire a neat and virtually \'mint\'-, enlisted-mens\'-type LW-shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for a: \'Soldat eines Flakartillerie-Regiments o. Abteilungs\'!
Attractive - albeit minimally mismatched - pair of N.S.K.K. (or: \'National Socialistisches Kraftfahr Korps\') shoulderboards as piped in the bright-yellow coloured branchcolour, as was intended for usage by the Flemish NSKK-volunteers This is an attractive - and fairly scarcely encountered! - Belgian (ie. Flemish-) volunteer-related so-called: N.S.K.K. (or: 'National Socialistisches Kraftfahr Korps') shoulderboard-pair as piped in the bright-yellow (ie. 'zitronengelber'-) branchcolour, that comes in an overall nice (albeit clearly used- and/or tunic-removed-), condition. The boards have the typical silver-black-coloured- and/or: 'checkered' upperdecks (ie. tops) and show the bright-yellow (ie. 'zitronengelber'-) and 'rayon'-based piping ie. branchcolour attached as to be expected (see pictures). The boards - which measure 12,5 cms. in length each as more often seen - are moderately used and/or worn: they shows some moderate age, wear and/or staining. An example of these boards is also figured in the Bender reference-book entitled: 'Foreign Legions of the Third Reich - Volume 2: Belgium, Great Britain, Holland, Italy and Spain' by David Littlejohn: it is pictured on the bottom of page 114 of this excellent book). Simply an attractive Flemish-volunteer-related N.S.K.K. (or: 'National Socialistisches Kraftfahr Korps') shoulderboard-pair: only the first such rare pair I did ever had on offer!
Attractive - albeit minimally mismatched - pair of WH (Heeres), mid-war-period (ie. \'M43\'-type-) EM-type shoulderstraps that comes with its attached \'Übershube\'-pair, as was intended for a: \'Soldat des Nachschub-Abts. 12\' This is an attractive - albeit minimally mismatched - pair of WH (Heeres), IMO mid-war-period (ie. 'M43'-type-) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was piped in the neat bright-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour that comes with its attached 'Übershube'-pair, as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - a: 'Soldat des Heeres-Nachschub-Abteilungs 12' (or simple soldier who served within an army, transport-unit, numbered: '12') and that comes in an overall nice (and IMO moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which have the field-grey coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' - have the bright-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measure approximately 11,7 cms. in length each. They come mounted on their original tongues and come in a nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition overall. The pair was with certainly always together and was without doubt worn as a pair (this although they are minimally mismatched in minor details). The straps came mounted with a (matching) pair of (field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based-) so-called: slip-ons (ie. 'Übershuben') attached, bearing both the signification: 'XII' (as executed in equally bright-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' done in wool as can be seen on the pictures). Both 'Übershuben' are in a great albeit equally used- and/or worn condition: they show some wear and are somewhat stained - see pictures. Simply an attractive pair of moderately used 'Soldat des Heeres-Nachschub-Abteilungs 12'-shoulderstraps that can easily serve to complete any mid-war 'Heeres'-type tunic or that can be stored in any shoulderstrap-collection!
Attractive - albeit minimally mismatched but nevertheless scarcely found! - pair of WH (Luftwaffe) EM-type: \'Flakartillerie\' shoulderstraps as was specifically intended for the bluish-grey (ie. \'blaumelliertes\') summer-shirts This is an attractive - albeit minimally mismatched but nevertheless still very scarcely found! - pair of WH (Luftwaffe) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was specifically intended for the bluish-grey (ie. 'blaumelliertes') summer-shirts as piped in the bright-red- (ie. hochroter-) coloured branchcolour and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn- and/or shirt-removed-) condition. The straps - which measure approximately 10,4 cms. in length each - are as stated 'piped' in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour and were as such intended for a soldier that served within the: 'Flakartillerie-Truppen' (or anti-aircraft troops: the set - that was most certainly used as a pair - has the typical 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair comes in a moderately used ie. worn condition (and shows some minimal age- and/or staining) and is still a bit 'wrinkled'. Simply a very attractive and actually not that often encountered Luftwaffe summer-shirt-shoulderstrap-pair!
Attractive - albeit minimally mismatched! - pair of WH (Heeres), IMO early-war- ie. pre-war-period (ie. \'M36\'-pattern- and/or rounded-style-) EM-type shoulderstraps, as was intended for a: \'Soldat der Nachrichten-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit minimally mismatched - pair of WH (Heeres), IMO early-war- (ie. pre-war-period ie. 'M36'-pattern- and/or rounded-style-) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as piped in the neat bright-yellow- (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Nachrichten-Truppen' (or simple, army-signals-soldier) and that comes in an overall nice (ie. IMO clearly issued- ie. moderately worn-), condition. The neat schoulderstraps - which have the 'standard'-pattern-, darker-green coloured- and/or smooth-woolen-based 'upperdecks' - have the bright-yellow- (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) coloured- and woolen-type- piping attached (see pictures). The straps measure approximately 11,6 cms. in length each. The straps - which are of the regular-issued - (ie. non-private-production-) type! - come mounted on their functional tongues and come in a nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition, overall. The pair shows - as stated above - regular wear, age and/or minimal staining but is totally void of any damage (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps were found together and were most certainly worn as such as a pair: they only differ in minimal detail from eachother (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive and with certainty desirable 'Nachrichten'-related-, enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap-pair that was never before in collectors'-hands and that is IMO accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit minimally rust-stained - WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) \'Krim\'-campaign-shield (as was produced by a by me unidentified maker) and that comes in a presumably issued - albeit \'virtually mint\', condition This is an attractive - albeit minimally rust-stained - example of a non-maker-marked, WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) 'Krim'-campaign-shield as was produced by a by me unidentified maker and that comes in a probably issued albeit 'virtually mint'- (and with certainty never tunic-attached-), condition. The shield - that comes mounted onto its original, field-grey-coloured 'backing' - comes in a fully untouched condition and was with certainty never worn nor used. It comes naturally complete with its metal-based back-plate and has all its four prongs in place: moreover, does it still retain its (typical) protective, black-coloured- and/or paper-based backing attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - which is minimally converse-shaped as more often - retains most of its original, bright-golden-coloured- and 'glossy' finish ie. bronze-like appearance (a fair bit of its period 'Brennlack' is still present) and was never cleaned nor polished: it does show some (rust)staining caused by decades of storage only. Simply a very attractive and desirable 'Heeres ie. Waffen-SS'-pattern example that was surely issued but simply never worn. I deem that I have priced this untouched specimen accordingly!

Attractive - albeit minimally worn! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (ie. DKiG or German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice, condition This is a truly attractive - and I deem minimally worn - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) 'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold in Stoff' (or: cloth-based DKiG ie. German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem surely used- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (fully undamaged!) field-grey-coloured- (ie. typical 'Heeres'- ie. 'Waffen-SS'-type-) woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Heeres'- ie. 'Waffen-SS'-soldier. The piece shows some minimal age and minimal wear but is totally void of any real damage or alike: it does, however, show a tiny albeit non-disturbing moth-hole (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross shows a bright-golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which is void of an inked makers'-mark (ie. logo) on its back as is more often encountered - and is nicely 'backed' with a piece of black-coloured 'backing'-paper (something that is more often seen). Simply a nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is I deem accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit minimally worn! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (ie.

Attractive - albeit mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres) early-war-period- (ie. \'M36\'- ie. \'M40\'-pattern, \'standard-issued\'- and/or rounded-styled) NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier eines Pionier-Bataillons\' This is an attractive - albeit mis-matched but most certainly worn as such - pair of (I deem) \'standard-issued\'- (ie. \'non-privately-purchased\'!) pattern, WH (Heeres) early-war period- (ie. \'M36\'- ie. \'M40\'-pattern and/or: rounded-styled) NCO-type shoulderstraps (ie. \'Schulterstücke für Unteroffiziere des Heeres\') as was piped in the desirable black- (ie. \'schwarzer\'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by an: \'Unteroffizier eines Pionier-Bataillons\' (or: junior-sergeant who served within an army-enigineers\' battailon) and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat straps - which have both the \'standard\'-pattern, darker-green-coloured and/or typical \'smooth woolen\'- based \'upperdecks\' and that measure approximately 11,2 cms. in length each - show the neat black- (ie. \'schwarzer\'-) coloured and/or typical woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). Moreover, do the straps show the typical (\'standard-pattern\') silverish-toned NCO-braid attached and come naturally mounted onto their period-attached tongues attached and come both in a very nice- (ie. fully \'text-book\') condition overall (as can be seen on the pictures). The neat pair only shows moderate wear and/or age but is, nevertheless, still nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem this an excellent occasion to acquire a neat - albeit mis-matched! - NCO-type, \'Pioniere\'-related shoulderstrap-pair for a justified price!
Attractive - albeit mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres) officers\'-type shoulderboards as piped in the golden-yellow- (ie. \'goldgelbener\'-) coloured branchcolour as intended for a: \'Hauptmann eines eines Kavallerie- o. Aufklärungs-Abts. o. Rgts.\' The attractive - and carefully tunic-removed! - shoulderboards are typical, 'text-book'-examples of the Heeres'-type, officers'-pattern shoulderboards and have the silverish-grey- (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued'-type-) 'upperdecks': they were most certainly once tunic-attached and show some minimal age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The boards show the desirable golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour (and were constructed from the 'smooth-type'- ie. 'moleskin-type'-wool as to be expected). The boards never had any tongues attached and were clearly intended (and used!) as a pair of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). The boards measure approximately 11,3 cms. in length each and show two matching sets of (golden-bronze-toned, larger-sized- and/or: zinc-based) pips period-attached (as can be seen on the pictures) denoting that the officer who wore this set held the rank of: 'Hauptmann' (ie. captain) who served within a: 'Kavallerie- o. Aufklärungs-Abteilung. o. Regiment' (ie. captain who served within an army cavalry- or reconnaissance unit ie. regiment). Taking into account the fact that this pair has the somewhat 'sub-dued'-type 'upperdecks' I deem that it was a pair that was intended to be used on a regular 'front-tunic'. Simply an attractive WH (Heeres) shoulderboard-pair that belonged to a: 'Hauptmann eines Kavallerie- o. Aufklärungs-Abteilungs. o. Regiments' and that is priced according to its slightly mis-matched condition!
Attractive - albeit mis-matched - pair of WH (Heeres), early-war-period-, NCO-type \'cyphered\' shoulderstraps, as was intended for a: \'Stabsfeldwebel eines Panzer-Lehr-Regiments\' This is a truly very attractive - albeit regrettably mis-matched but nevertheless rarely encountered! - pair of WH (Heeres), IMO early- (ie. pre-) war-period-, NCO-type 'cyphered' shoulderstraps as was piped in the desirable bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour, as was specifically fabricated for the black-coloured 'Panzer wrap-around'-tunics, as was intended for a: 'Stabsfeldwebel eines Panzer-Lehr-Regiments' (or: senior-sergeant ie. 'Spiess' and most likely an instructor who served within a: 'Panzer-Lehr'-regiment), that comes in an overall nice (albeit clearly used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which are approximately 12 cms. sized in length - have the 'standard-type'- and/or black-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdecks' and have as to be expected the bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured- and/or woolen-type piping attached (see pictures). The straps - which never had any tongues attached and that were clearly worn as a pair of the 'sew-in'-type - show as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor wear, staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). The straps show the (standard-pattern) silver-NCO braid attached and show a matching set of (aluminium-based, Gothic-styled) 'L'-'cyphers' and six (also aluminium-based) pips attached, denoting the unusually seen rank of: 'Hauptfeldwebel o. Spiess'. It should be noted that all NCO-pattern, 'Panzer'-shoulderstraps (as were specifically intended for usage on the black-coloured 'Panzer wrap-around'-tunics) can easily be regarded 'rare' (even more so when they are neatly 'cyphered' as this pair). This particular pair - which is as stated above not completely matching but that was most certainly worn as such as a pair - originated from a larger cloth- and/or shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case a very attractive and/or IMO early- ie. pre-war-period, 'Heeres'-Panzer related NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by a: 'Stabsfeldwebel eines Panzer-Lehr-Regiments'!
Attractive - albeit mis-matched - pair of WH (Luftwaffe) \'tropical-styled\' shoulderstraps (as was specifically intended for usage on the tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel der Flieger-o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen\' The attractive shoulderstraps - which are both approximately 10,6 cms. sized in length - are presumably only minimally used and/or worn: they show the neat golden-yellow- (ie. \'goldgelbener\'-) coloured branchcolour (ie. \'silk-like\'-type piping) attached and were as such intended for usage by a sergeant who served within the Luftwaffe flight- ie. paratroopers\'-branch. The attractive straps - which are both executed in the regular- (ie. slightly \'thicker\'-styled- and/or: somewhat \'smooth\'-like-) linnen-based cloth - come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues (as can be seen on the pictures). Both straps show the typical (ie. somewhat chocolate-brown-coloured- ie. typical Luftwaffe-tropical-styled-) NCO-braid and two (identical, zinc-based- and/or regular-sized) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: \'Feldwebel\' (ie. sergeant). The pair shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining (but is fully undamaged as can be seen on the pictures). As cab be learned from the pictures is this pair minimally mis-matched: something that is more often the case with these WH (Luftwaffe) \'tropical-styled\' NCO-type shoulderstraps. (This can be noticed by looking at the differently coloured thread that was used for the button-holes). The pair was, however, most certainly worn as such and was always together. It should be noted that these LW tropical-styled, NCO-type shoulderstraps can easily be considered \'scarce\': even more so when they come in such a neat and/or only just minimally used- ie. worn condition!
Attractive - albeit mismatched - pair of IMO mid-war-period-, so-called: \'M43\'-pattern-, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstraps, as was intended for an: \'Oberfeldwebel eines Heeres-Nachrichten-Abteilungs\' The attractive - albeit mismatched - NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair is piped in the desirable bright-yellow- (ie. 'zitronengelber'-) coloured branchcolour and measures approximately 11 cms. in length. The straps have the bright-yellow- (ie. 'zitronengelber'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as is more often encountered with these mid-war-period shoulderstrap-pairs) and were intended for usage by a senior-sergeant (ie. sergeant first-class) who served within an army signals-unit (ie. 'Heeres-Nachrichten-Abteilung'). The shoulderstraps - which originate from a private household and that were recently uncovered - are typical 'standard-issued'-examples that have the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks'. They show the 'standard-pattern'-, silverish-coloured NCO-braid attached and were IMO only moderately used ie. worn: they do show wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). They have four (regular-sized- and/or aluminium- ie. zinc-based-) pips period-attached, denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Oberfeldwebel'. The straps come naturally mounted on their functional tongues (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstraps come in a wonderful- and/or totally undamaged condition and will be hard to be upgraded: they are just a tiny bit mismatched in length only but were with certainty worn as such as a pair - see pictures. These desirable 'M43'-pattern-, army-signals-related-, NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the 'zitronengelber'-coloured branchcolour can easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. Simply a very attractive pair that belonged to an: 'Oberfeldwebel eines Heeres-Nachrichten-Abteilungs'!
Attractive - albeit mismatched! - pair of white-piped, Waffen-SS NCO-type shoulderstraps, as was intended for an: \'SS-Oberscharführer der Infanterie\' that comes in an overall nice, albeit moderately used and/or worn-, condition This is an attractive - albeit mismatched! - pair of (IMO mid-war period-) Waffen-SS, NCO-type shoulderstraps, as piped in the desirable white- (ie. weisser-) branchcolour, as was intended for usage by an: 'SS-Oberscharführer der Infanterie' (ie. infantry-sergeant) and that comes in a very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The straps have the neat and very desirable (white-coloured) 'silk-like'-type piping attached and show the black-coloured 'upperdecks' (as to be expected). One of the straps has the black-coloured 'underlay' (whereas the other shows the field-grey-coloured 'underlay'). Both straps might well be worn as such as a pair and both have the 'standard-pattern', silverish-grey- (ie. somewhat sub-dued-) NCO-braid, attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair comes on its functional (typical SS-styled- and smaller-type-) tongues attached, has two (aluminium-based- and matching-) pips attached and is approximately 11 cms. sized in length. The pair - which is by all means a 'standard-issued'-pair - was IMO only slightly used: it shows some truly minimal wear and/or age. As most certainly known are all Waffen-SS, NCO-type straps to be considered rare and are very hard to encounter: those matching pairs, piped in the white ('Infanterie') having attached tongues even more so! In any case still an attractive and desirable pair of Waffen-SS infantry-type NCO-straps that is IMO priced according to its minimally mis-matched condition!
Attractive - albeit mismatched! - pair of white-piped, Waffen-SS NCO-type shoulderstraps, as was intended for an: \'SS-Unterscharführer der Infanterie\' that comes in an overall nice, albeit moderately used and/or worn, condition This is an attractive - albeit mismatched! - pair of (IMO mid-war period-) Waffen-SS, NCO-type shoulderstraps, as piped in the desirable white- (ie. weisser-) branchcolour, as was intended for usage by an: 'SS-Unterscharführer der Infanterie' (ie. infantry junior-sergeant) and that comes in a very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The straps have the neat and very desirable (white-coloured) 'silk-like'-type piping attached and show the black-coloured 'upperdecks'. One of the straps has the black-coloured 'underlay' (whereas the other shows the field-grey-coloured 'underlay'). Both straps might well be worn as a pair and both have the 'standard-pattern', silverish-grey- (ie. somewhat corroded) NCO-braid, attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair comes on its functional (typical SS-styled- and smaller-type-) tongues attached and is approximately 10,5 cms. sized in length. The pair - which is by all means a 'standard-issued'-pair - was IMO only slightly used: it shows some truly minimal wear and/or age. As most certainly known are all Waffen-SS, NCO-type straps to be considered rare and are very hard to encounter: those matching pairs, piped in the white ('Infanterie') having attached tongues even more so! In any case still an attractive and desirable pair of Waffen-SS infantry-type NCO-straps that is IMO priced according to its minimally mis-matched condition!
Attractive - albeit moderately used! - example of a WH (Luftwaffe) machine-embroidered, trade- ie. special-career-patch (ie. \'Tätigkeitsabzeichen\') having a silverish-grey-toned \'Kordel\' attached as was intended for: \'LW-Fernschreib-Unteroffiziere\' This is an attractive - albeit moderately used- and/or worn- but nevertheless not that easily found! - example of a WH (Luftwaffe) machine-embroidered, so-called: trade- ie. special-career-patch (ie. 'Tätigkeitsabzeichen') showing a greyish-silver-toned 'Kordel' attached as was specifically intended for: 'LW-Fernschreib-Unteroffiziere' (ie. telex-staff) and that comes in an overall nice- (and most certainly worn- ie. once tunic-attached-), condition. The badge - which has the neat 'greyish-silver'- and cord-like border' (ie. 'Kordel') attached - signified that the bearer had sucessfully succeeded various tests in this speciality. The piece - which shows a black-coloured- and linnen-based 'backing' - is nicely machine-woven on a LW bluish-grey-coloured- and/or rib-like- ie. woolen-based background and shows some minor staining and/or fair wear. These badges ranked actually amongst the 'award-category' and came together with an official award-document and had to be properly entered in both 'Soldbuch' and 'Wehrpass'. Simply an attractive - and not that often encountered! - LW-'Tätigkeits-Abzeichen' that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used! - multi-coloured (and I deem \'tin-metal\'-based-) so-called: \'door-plaque\' (ie. \'Türplakette\') entitled: \'Winterhilfswerk 1933-34 - Wir haben geholfen\' The attractive and somewhat larger-sized, Third-Reich-period (door)plaque (having a diameter of approximately 9,8 cms.) depicts an illustration of a typical flame with behind a swastika-sign and is surrounded with the text as mentioned above (as can be seen on the pictures). The plaque shows three tiny holes for screwing ie. attaching the plaque to a doorpost: as such the residents could be identified as members ie. participating supporters of this TR-organisation. The piece has no real damage whatsoever (and was - I deem - not cleaned nor polished) and has very nice and pronouned detail. It retains a typical multi-coloured- and nicely sprayed 'age-patina' and shows some minimal age and/or wear caused by presumably having been once door-attached (it is, however, void of any paint-damage). Simply a decorative - and with certainty that not that often seen! - WHW- (ie. 'Winterhilfswerke'-) related door-plaque ie. 'Türplakette'!

Simply a decorative - and with certainty that not that often seen! - WHW- (ie. \'Winterhilfswerke\'-) related door-plaque ie. \'Türplakette\'!
Attractive - albeit moderately used! - WH (Heeres) officers\'-type, hand-embroidered breast-eagle (ie. \'Brustadler für Offiziere der Pz-Truppen\') as was executed in bright-silverish-coloured braid on a black-coloured background This is an attractive - fairly scarcely seen albeit moderately used- ie. carefully tunic-removed! - example of a WH (Heeres) officers'-type, hand-embroidered- (and truly detailed!) army-type breast-eagle (ie. 'Brustadler für Offiziere der Panzer-Truppen') being executed in bright-silverish-coloured braid onto a black-coloured- and/or 'smooth'-woolen-based background and that comes in an overall nice- (and just moderately used- ie. with certainty carefully tunic-removed-), condition. This example - having a length ie. 'wingspan' of approximately 10,4 cms. - was specifically intended for usage onto the black-coloured officers'-pattern 'Panzer'-wrap-around'-tunics and is nicely hand-embroidered using (bright) silverish-coloured 'braid' on a black-coloured (and/or woolen-based-) background and has some 'highlighted areas' as executed in black-coloured thread (as can be seen on the pictures). The eagle - which is void of a makers'-designation as more often and that does show minimal usage and wear as can be noticed on the pictures - shows a black-coloured- and/or linnen-based 'backing' attached: moreover, does it show some stitching-remains ie. holes (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive example of a WH (Heeres) 'Panzer'-related, officers'-type breast-eagle of the 'Extra Qualität' that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used! - \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber\' (or: silver-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a hollow-type, non-maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen by the: \'Gebr. Wegerhoff\'-company This is a truly attractive - and I deem moderately used and actually not that easily found! - example of a so-called: 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber' (or: silver-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a typical, non-maker-maker-marked- and/or typical zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen as was with certainty produced by the: 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'- (ie. 'GWL'-) company and that comes in an overall nice- (and I deem only moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The badge on offer here concerns a mid- (ie. later-) war-period, zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based specimen that has regrettably lost some of its silver-coloured finish: this has simply faded-away (ie. 'migriert') over the years. The piece retains, however, still a very attractive appearance still showing pronounced detail as to be expected by a badge by this particular maker. The badge has never been cleaned nor polished (and is still also a tiny bit dirty ie. stained- ie. tarnished as mentioned above). As stated is the piece a non-maker-marked example that shows the various characteristics - such as for example the typically-shaped catch - as only seen on PABs as produced by the: 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'- (ie. 'GWL'-) company as based in the town of Lüdenscheid: it deals with a so-called: 'hollow zinc-pattern' (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: '1.7.2.' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: 'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The attractive piece naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was recently found as such at a German private household and was never before part of a collection. The piece comes naturally mounted onto its fully functional pin- and/or catch(set-up) as can be seen on the pictures. Simply a very attractive and honest silver-class PAB by the desirable 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'- (ie. 'GWL'-) company that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used! - \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber\' (or: silver-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a hollow-type, non-maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen by the: \'Gebr. Wegerhoff\'-company This is a truly attractive - and I deem moderately used and actually not that easily found! - example of a so-called: \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber\' (or: silver-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a typical, non-maker-maker-marked- and/or typical zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen as was with certainty produced by the: \'Gebr. Wegerhoff\'- (ie. \'GWL\'-) company and that comes in an overall nice- (and I deem only moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The badge on offer here concerns a mid- (ie. later-) war-period, zinc- ie. \'Feinzink\'-based specimen that has regrettably lost some of its silver-coloured finish: this has simply faded-away (ie. \'migriert\') over the years. The piece retains, however, still a very attractive appearance still showing pronounced detail as to be expected by a badge by this particular maker. The badge has never been cleaned nor polished (and is still also a tiny bit dirty ie. stained- ie. tarnished as mentioned above). As stated is the piece a non-maker-marked example that shows the various characteristics - such as for example the typically-shaped catch - as only seen on PABs as produced by the: \'Gebr. Wegerhoff\'- (ie. \'GWL\'-) company as based in the town of Lüdenscheid: it deals with a so-called: \'hollow zinc-pattern\' (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: \'1.7.2.\' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: \'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII\' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The attractive piece naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was recently found as such at a German private household and was never before part of a collection. The piece comes naturally mounted onto its fully functional pin- and/or catch(set-up) as can be seen on the pictures. Simply a very attractive and honest silver-class PAB by the desirable \'Gebr. Wegerhoff\'- (ie. \'GWL\'-) company that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- and/or worn! - example of a: \'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse ohne Schwertern\' being a maker- (ie. \'1\'-) marked specimen as was produced by the: \'Deschler u. Sohn\'-company The award on offer here concerns a superb, maker-marked and/or fairly shiny, so-called: 'Buntmetall'- (ie. 'Tombak-') based specimen that was - I deem - just moderately used and/or worn. It still shows a very 'shiny' age-patina and truly retains most of its ('off-factory') polished sides (ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten'). Some minimal wear, age- ie. staining is, however, visible and/or present, simply caused by decades of storage and moderate wear. The piece - which comes naturally mounted onto its functional and fully unaltered flute-shaped pin- ie. catch-set-up - has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a great occasion to acquire a beautiful and fully untouched: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse ohne Schwerter'-cross for a competitive price!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- and/or worn! - \'Reichssportabzeichen DRL in Bronze\' (or: DRL sports\'-badge in bronze) being an example that is nicely maker- (ie. \'Ernst L. Müller\'-) marked on its back The attractive bronze-class DRL-sports'-badge is of the version with swastika and retains most of its (minimally darkened- and/or golden-bronze-coloured) finish. As stated above, is the badge nicely - and clearly! - maker-marked with the (unusally seen!) makers'-designation: 'Ernst L. Müller - Pforzheim' and also bears the: 'DRGM'-text and/or number on its back as usually encountered. The badge - which comes naturally mounted onto its functional and unaltered pin- and/or pin-catch set-up - was never cleaned nor polished and retains a somewhat stained (ie. minimally tarnished) age-patina (as can be clearly seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive example by an unusually seen maker that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn - example of a WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Marine-Artillerie-Abzeichen\' being a zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based and non-maker-marked example as was IMO produced by the \'S.& L.\'-company This is an attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn - example of a WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Marine-Artillerie-Abzeichen' (or: coastal-artillery war-badge) being a zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based- albeit non-maker-marked example that comes in an overall nice (and IMO moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The detailed badge retains most of its golden-toned finish and is executed in greyish-silver-toned so-called: zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'). The badge comes mounted on its functional and unaltered (vertically-mounted- and/or thin-shaped-) pin and has an unaltered catch in place as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). Moreover, does it show a neatly 'crimped hinge' (as can be seen on the pictures). The award was IMO never cleaned nor polished and has still extraordinary and stunning detail: it is just a bit dusty ie. dirty and comes as recently found. It deals IMO with certainty with a later-war-period produced war-badge that was produced by the: 'Steinhauer u. Lück'-company based in the town of Lüdenscheid. I deem that this (IMO later-war-period-) example is accordingly priced: it will be hard to find a more attractive example for a more interesting price!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn - example of a WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' (ie. destroyer war-badge) being a zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based and maker- (ie. \'S.H.u.Co\'-) marked example This is an attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn - example of a WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen' (ie. destroyer war-badge) being a zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based- and/or maker- (ie. 'S.H.u.Co'-) marked example that comes in an overall nice (and IMO moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The detailed badge retains most of its golden-toned finish and is executed in greyish-silver-toned so-called: zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'). The badge comes mounted on its functional and unaltered (horizontally-mounted- and/or thin-shaped-) pin and has an unaltered catch in place as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). Moreover, does it show the tiny hook in place (as intended to firmly attach the award when worn on a tunic). The award was IMO never cleaned nor polished and has still extraordinary and stunning detail: it is just a bit dusty ie. dirty and comes as recently found. It clearly shows the makers-designation: 'S.H.u.Co' on its back and is thus a war-badge that was produced by the: 'Söhni u. Heubach'-company. I deem that this (IMO later-war-period-) example is accordingly priced: it will be hard to find a more attractive example for a more interesting price!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn - WH (Luftwaffe) bluish-grey-coloured, EM- (ie. NCO-) type side-cap (ie. \'Schiffchenmütze für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere der Luftwaffe\') This is an attractive, typicallu bluish-grey-coloured, enlisted-mens'- (ie. NCO-) type side-cap (ie. 'Schiffchenmütze für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere der Luftwaffe') being a maker-marked and/or: medium-sized example that shows its period-attached insignia and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn), condition. The cap - which is executed in the typical bluish-grey-coloured 'Luftwaffe'-pattern woolen-based cloth ie. wool - shows no damage and is marked on the inside (ie. ink-stamped): these markings are, however, somewhat 'faded' and are hard to decypher and were with certainty 'washed-out' during moderate usage and wear: I can make out a size: of 56½ and the makers'-designation: 'Lago …' (as can be seen on the pictures). The cap - which is I deem a typical example of a 'standard-issued'-type cap - is a regular-sized example that measures thus 56 or 57 cms. (which is a size that would easily fit a mannequins'-head as can be seen on the pictures). The side-cap shows a neat, typical greyish-coloured lining (as can be seen on the pictures) something that is 'standard' for these side-caps The cap shows only minimal staining and/or age (just caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear) but truly retains all its woolen-based 'nap' and is totally void of any real damage. It shows a (typical) LW-side-cap-eagle (mounted onto a blue-coloured background) and equally styled cap-cocarde period-attached (by means of hand-stitching something that is more often found). Simply an attractive - and naturally 100% genuine! - example of an (I deem) early- ie. mid-war-period-pattern, 'Schiffchenmütze für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere der Luftwaffe' that is - I deem - accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' being a clearly maker-marked example as executed in \'Feinzink\' as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'S.H.u.Co.\' This is an attractive - albeit I deem just moderately worn but still detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' (or: destroyers\'-war-badge) being a (typical) maker- (ie. \'S.H.u.Co.\'-) marked- example that is executed in typical zinc-based metal (ie. \'Feinzink\') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit surely issued- and I deem moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The very detailed and/or pronounced badge retains most of its golden- (ie. silverish-grey) coloured finish and is executed in so-called: zinc-based metal (ie. \'Feinzink\'): it comes, naturally mounted onto its unaltered- and/or functional (thin-shaped and neatly horizontally-mounted) pin and/or catch (set-up). The neat badge (that also retains its often missing so-called: \'Gegenhaken\') was - I deem - never cleaned nor polished: it is just a tiny bit dusty ie. dirty as recently found (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows all characteristics as to be expected for a by the maker (ie. \'Hersteller\') \'Sohni, Heubach & Co. Metallwarenfabrik\' (= \'S.H.u.Co.\') as based in the town of Oberstein (Nahe) produced naval war-badge. I deem that this used- albeit still nicely preserved WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' being a non-maker-marked example as executed in \'Feinzink\' as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'Paul Meybauer\' This is an attractive - albeit I deem just moderately worn but still detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' (or: destroyers\'-war-badge) being a (typical) non-maker-marked- (but nevertheless fairly \'high-quality\'-produced!) example that is executed in zinc-based metal (ie. \'Feinzink\') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit surely issued- and I deem just minimally worn-), condition. The very detailed and/or pronounced badge retains most of its (fairly light-toned) golden- (ie. silver-) coloured finish and is executed in so-called: zinc-based metal (ie. \'Feinzink\'): it comes, naturally mounted onto its unaltered- and/or functional (flute-shaped and neatly horizontally-mounted) pin and/or catch (set-up). The with certainty fairly \'high-quality\'-produced badge (that also retains its often missing so-called: \'Gegenhaken\') was - I deem - never cleaned nor polished: it is just a tiny bit dusty ie. dirty as recently found (as can be seen on the pictures).

'Tombak'-) based - naval war-badge is as stated above a non-maker-marked- and truly very detailed example that comes in a surely issued- and worn albeit overall nicely preserved, condition. It is, as such, a typical example that was produced by the desirable maker (ie. 'Hersteller'): 'Otto Schickle' as based in the town of Pforzheim. The piece has an attractive age-patina and retains most (ie. all) of its period-applied golden-toned finish (and still shows some of its off-factory 'hochpolierte Kanten' ie. polished sides as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows, moreover, extraordinary detail and comes naturally mounted onto its functional (flute-shaped- and/or typical silver-toned-) pin- and/or typical (golden-toned) catch(-set-up) which are both fully unaltered and of course fully functional. The badge has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished and is still a tiny bit dirty ie. stained. Simply an attractive - and with certainty not that often seen! - 'U-Bootkriegsabzeichen' by a desirable maker that was never before in collectors'-hands and that is I deem accordingly priced!

The piece itself is a non-maker-marked example that was with certainty produced by the unusually encountered: 'Karl Gschiermeister'-company, based in the town of Wien ie. Vienna). The cross came stored in its equally minty- and/or naturally period-, carton- (ie. 'Zellstoff'-) based pouch (which is naturally also accordingly maker-marked - see pictures).

The cross - which has fine and crisp (ie. truly 'frosted'!) detail shows some dirt and/or dust acquired over the years. The cross came - as stated above - mounted on its typically pre-folded- (ie. full-length-) and/or: 'Austrian-styled' ribbon as issued and/or recently found. Simply an attractive and/or 'variant'-pattern award!
Attractive - albeit non-matching - pair of (I deem) \'tropical-issue\' WH (Heeres) greenish-tan-coloured- and/or woolen-based, so-called: \'Wickel-Gamaschen\' (ie. puttees) being maker-marked examples that come in a hardly used- ie. never worn-, condition This is an attractive - albeit regrettably non-matching but with certainty scarcely encountered - pair of (I deem) 'tropical-issue' WH (Heeres) typical greenish-tan-coloured- and/or woolen-based, so-called: 'Wickel-Gamaschen' (ie. puttees) that were worn in conjuction with the low-boots ie. 'Halbshuhe' being both nicely maker-marked examples that come in a hardly used- nor worn-, condition. Both pieces were - I deem - hardly worn and do only show some minimal age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Both pieces - that came still 'tied-together' as found have both a functional, metal-based 'closing-hook' in place that shows an impressed 'R'-designation denoting that they are for the right- (ie. 'rechter') side (as can benoticed on the pictures). Both 'Wickel-Gamaschen' show an (identical) ink-stamp that reads: 'Ernst Dittrich - Limbach SA' (as can be seen on the pictures). Although the fact that this pair is non matching I deem that it can still excellenty be used on a mannequin. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a neat pair of 'tropical-issue', WH (Heeres) so-called: 'Wickel-Gamaschen' that is with certainty accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit period repaired - DRK- (ie. \'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz\'- or German Red Cross) related so-called: nurses\'-brooch entitled: \'Freie Schwesternschaft\' (being a moderately used- and multi-coloured-enamelled albeit non-maker-marked example) This is an attractive - albeit period-repaired but nevertheless quite scarcely encountered! - DRK- (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz'- or German Red Cross) so-called: nurses'-badge entitled: 'Freie Schwesternschaft' being an attractive, multi-coloured enamelled (albeit non-maker-marked) example that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The badge is made-out of silvered so-called: 'Buntmetall' and truly retains immaculate enamel and/or fairly tarnished (albeit silverished) finish (truly no real damages are noticable). The badge is totally void of a markers'-designation and shows a (period-altered) pin ie. safety-pin in place (as can be seen on the pictures). The fairly large-sized brooch (having an approximate diameter of 3,7 cms.) was most certainly issued and/or worn: it has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished and still has a neat, somewhat 'darkened' age-patina. The pin - which has a replaced pin- ie. catch set-up in place - is also figured in the Heering-Hüsken lapel-pin-catalogue, wherein it is given the unique reference-number: 5627A and an estimated value of 180 Eu(!). Simply an attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - DRK- (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz'- or German Red Cross) related so-called: 'Freie Schwesternschaft'-brooch that is I deem priced according to its replaced pin!
Attractive - albeit period-repaired - \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze\' being a clearly maker- (ie. \'KWM\'-) marked (and/or: typical zinc- ie. \'Feinzink\'-based-) example as was procuced by the: \'Karl Würster\'-company This is an attractive - and truly used- ie. worn - example of a zinc-based- and 'solid-back'-pattern, so-called: 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze' (or: bronze-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a maker- (ie. 'KWM'-) marked and/or: zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based example as was with certainty procuced by the: 'Karl Würster'-company and that comes in a moderately used- ie. worn, condition. The badge on offer here concerns a typical zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based specimen that retaine most of its golden-bronze-coloured finish: the piece has a somewhat 'darkened' ie. typical 'KWM'-like appearance. The badge has - I deem - not been cleaned nor polished and is just a bit tarnished as mentioned above. As stated above, is the piece a clearly maker-marked, 'solid-back'-example and shows various characteristics - such as for example the typical copper-based pin and/or high-modelled 'catch' which has - I deem - regrettably been period-repaired. The piece is a typical example as produced by the: 'Karl Würster'-company based in the town of Marneukirchen: it deals with a so-called: 'KWM classic pattern piece' (as uniquely numbered with the reference-number: '1.2.5' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: 'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The piece - which is very pronounced and that has great pronounced detail! - naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was recently uncovered at a private household in Germany and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive and honest bronze-class, 'KWM classic pattern'-PAB that comes in an overall nice and moderately used condition: of course did I price it according to its period-repaired catch!
Attractive - albeit period-repaired! - \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze\' (or: bronze-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a non-maker-marked- and/or hollow zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based example as was produced by the: \'Wilh. Deumer\'-company This is an attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn- and/or very nicely period-repaired - example of a: 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze' (or: bronze-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a non-maker-marked- and/or typical zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based example that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The attractive badge on offer here concerns an early- (and hollow-back!) typical zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based specimen that retains most of its (chocolate-brown) bronze-toned finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished (and is still also a tiny bit dirty ie. stained- ie. tarnished as mentioned above). As stated above, is the piece a non-maker-marked example that shows various characteristics - such as for example the typical-shaped, square-sized 'pin-mounting' and/or catch-set-up - typically seen with early-period PABs as produced by the: 'Wilhelm Deumer-company based in the town of Lüdenscheid: it deals with a so-called: 'hollow zinc “early”-pattern' (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: '2.1.2.' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: 'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The neat piece - which is very pronounced and has maintained great detail - naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was found as such at a German private household and was never before in a collection: as stated above does it show a period(!) repair on the back of wreath (this is, however, hardly noticable and nicely done. A pristine example of this fairly scarcely found PAB would most certainly cost much more. Simply a neat and honest, bronze-class PAB that comes in an overall nice albeit moderately used ie. worn, condition!
Attractive - albeit presumably issued but never worn! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Luftwaffe) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (ie. DKiG or German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice, condition This is a truly attractive - albeit presumably issued but never worn! - example of a cloth version of a WH (Luftwaffe) 'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold in Stoff' (or: cloth-based DKiG ie. German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem 'virtually mint'-), condition. The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (fully undamaged!) bluish-grey-coloured- (ie. typical 'Luftwaffe'-type-) woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Luftwaffe'-soldier. The piece shows some minimal storage-age but is totally void of any damage or alike. It shows a bright-golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which is void of an inked makers'-mark (ie. logo) on its back as is more often encountered - is nicely 'backed' with black-coloured 'backing'-paper (something that is more often seen). Simply a very nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is I deem accordingly priced and that will be impossible to be upgraded!
Attractive - albeit presumably issued but never worn! - example of a cloth-based version of a WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) \'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold\' (ie. DKiG or German Cross in gold) being a maker- (ie. \'C.A. Westmann\'-) marked example This is a truly attractive - albeit presumably issued but with certaity never worn! - example of a cloth-based version of a WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) 'Deutsches Kreuz im Gold in Stoff' (or: cloth-based DKiG ie. German Cross in gold) that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem 'virtually mint'- and never tunic-attached-), condition. The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (fully undamaged!) field-grey-coloured woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Heeres o. Waffen-SS'-soldier. The piece shows some minimal storage-age but is totally void of any damage or alike. It shows a somewhat darkened- albeit golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which shows a period-attached, paper-based makers'-mark-etiket (that reads: 'C.A. Westmann - Dresden') on its back as is more often encountered - is nicely 'backed' with greyish-coloured 'backing'-paper (something that is more often seen). Simply a very nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is I deem accordingly priced and that will be impossible to be upgraded!

The piece - which is neatly hand-embroidered in various types of bullion - has a (fully undamaged!) field-grey-coloured- and typically 'smooth-like' and woolen-based background, signifying that it was a piece that was awarded to a 'Heeres o.

It shows a somewhat darkened- albeit golden-toned (ie. metal-based) wreath as to be expected. The piece - which shows a period-attached, paper-based makers'-mark-etiket (that reads: 'C.A.

Simply a very nice example of a high-class award - only second in grade to a Knights Cross or 'Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'! - that is I deem accordingly priced and that will be very hard to be upgraded!
Attractive - albeit regrattably single! - SA- (ie. \'Sturmabteilungen\'-) collar-patch (ie. \'Kragenspiegel\') being a piece as was intended for usage by an: \'SA-Mann\' serving within the: \'11./11. Reiter-Standarte\' (Franken o. Hansa) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - darker-blue-coloured SA- (ie. 'Sturmabteilungen'-) collar-patch (ie. 'Kragenspiegel') being a piece as was (I deem) intended for usage by an: 'SA-Mann' serving within the: '11. Sturm des 11. Reiter-Standarte' (Franken o. Hansa) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The piece - which is constructed from the darker-blue-coloured- and/or 'smooth-type'- wool - comes in a moderately used- and/or worn condition overall: it shows a bright-golden-toned 'Reiterstandarten'-device and shows the white-coloured (double) '11'-numerals (which are neatly executed in so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'). The tab - that still shows the remains of its paper-based 'RzM'-etiket on its back - was clearly once mounted onto a tunic or shirt. It is neatly backed with a piece of 'buckram'-based material (as can be seen on the pictures) and does show obvious wear, age and/or staining. Simply an attractive - and actually quite usually encountered! - SA- (ie. 'Sturmabteilungen'-collar-tab that is not that often offered for sale and that is with certainty accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit regretabbly single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe) shoulderstrap as executed in HBT-type cloth and piped in bright-yellow as intended for a: \'Soldat der Flieger- o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regretabbly single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe) shoulderstrap as was executed in typical, linnen-based so-called: HBT-type cloth and that is piped in bright-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour and was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Flieger- o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen' (or: simple pilot- or paratrooper-soldier), that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used- and/or worn-), condition. The strap - which measures 10.7 cms. in length - has the neat 'silk-like'-type piping attached and shows the signs of having been slightly worn and used (it is somewhat dirty ie. stained). The strap came mounted on its functional tongue and still had its ('pebbled'-styled) tunic-button attached (which with it was was tunic-attached). These HBT-style straps can easily be considered fairly scarce and saw also usage by the (later-war-period-) so-called: LW 'Felddivisionen': simply a neat example: too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably damaged- and incomplete! - example of a: \'Wiederholungsspange zum EK II. Klasse\' (or bar to the WWI IC 2nd class) being a non-maker-marked example of the rarely seen first pattern This is an attractive - albeit regrettably damaged- and incomplete! - example of a: 'Wiederholungsspange zum EK II. Klasse' (or bar to the WWI IC 2nd class) being a non-maker-marked example of the rarely seen first pattern that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly issued and/or worn-), condition. The neat piece has lost most of its 'high-polished sides (or 'hochpolierte Kanten') but is, however, still very detailed and/or pronounced as to be expected: it came together with its (minimally confectioned- and/or neatly folded-) piece of WWI-period EKII-ribbon ie. 'Bandabschnitt' - as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' regrettably misses all its four prongs (just the remains are still present and visible as can be seen on the pictures). The piece - which is of the rarely seen first pattern something that can be deducted from the 'rounded-styled' 1939-year-bar - retains a nice age-patina and was IMO never cleaned nor polished. The piece originated from a private household and was never before in any collection. It should be noted that these 'Wiederholungsspangen zum EK II. Klasse' are quite scarcely encountered and are not that often appearing on the market: even more so when they are of the rarely seen first pattern. I deem that I have priced this damaged 'variant-pattern'-example accordingly!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty but nevertheless rarely encountered! - etui as was intended for a: WH \'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 1. Klasse in Gold mit Schwerter\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably empty but nevertheless rarely encountered! - luxuriously-styled- and semi-leather-based etui as was specifically intended for storage of a: WH 'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 1. Klasse in Gold mit Schwerter' (or: golden-class 'Ostvölker' bravery-medal ie. breast-star for merit on the Eastern Front with swords) wound-badge) and that comes in an overall nice (albeit surely issued- ie. minimally used-), condition. The etui comes in an overall nicely preserved condition: it is fully functional and nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). The etui (that shows the typical 'square-sized corners' as more often) has a fully preserved, black-coloured (ie. simulated velvet-) interior-section that shows a clear imprint of the badge it once held (as can be seen on the pictures). The etuis' top shows a (fully preserved and golden-toned) illustration of the badge (as can be seen on the pictures). The etui was I deem just moderatelty used and does show some obvious age. wear and/or staining. Simply a very nice - and desirable! - etui that just needs a: WH 'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 1. Klasse in Gold mit Schwerter' to complete!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty but nevertheless rarely encountered! - \'Zellstoff\'-based pouch as was intended for a: WH \'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 2. Klasse in Gold\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably empty but nevertheless rarely encountered! - typical \'Zellstoff\'-based pouch as was intended for a: WH \'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 2. Klasse in Gold\' (or: golden- ie. 2nd. class \'Ostvölker\' bravery-medal for merit on the Eastern Front) and that comes in an overall nice (albeit surely issued- ie. minimally used-), condition. The pouch - which measures 11,5 x 8 cms. - comes in an overall nicely preserved condition: it is fully functional, complete and nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). It was just moderately used and does show some obvious age. wear and/or staining. The pouch is totally void of a makers\'-designation (as is more often the case). Simply neat - and desirable! - \'Zellstoff\'-based pouch that just needs a: \'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 2. Klasse in Gold\' to complete!

Klasse in Silber\' (or: silver- ie. 2nd. class \'Ostvölker\' loyal-service-medal) and that comes in an overall nice (albeit surely issued- ie. minimally used-), condition. The pouch - which measures 11,5 x 8 cms. - comes in an overall nicely preserved condition: it is fully functional, complete and nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). It was just moderately used and does show some obvious age. wear and/or staining. The pouch is totally void of a makers\'-designation (as is more often the case). Simply neat - and desirable! - \'Zellstoff\'-based pouch that just needs a: WH \'Verdienstauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 2. Klasse in Silber\' to complete!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - etui as was intended for storage of a: \'KvK 1. Kl. mit Schwertern\' (being a neatly maker- ie. \'Deschler u. Sohn\'-) marked specimen that comes in a wonderful ie. \'virtually mint-\', condition) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - example of a typical black-coloured- and somewhat 'simplified' etui as was intended for storage of a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: war-merits-cross first class with swords) being a neatly maker- (ie. 'Deschler u. Sohn'-) marked specimen that comes in a wonderful ie. 'virtually mint-' and/or hardly used-, condition. The etui is of course fully functional (and shows the printed, fully undamaged and/or silver-grey-coloured 'KvK'-symbol on its top). The etui has a fully preserved, black-coloured- (ie. velvet-like-) interior-section (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice occasion to acquire a virtually 'mint' example of a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schwerter'-etui that just need a: 'Deschler u. Sohn'-KvK 1st class to complete!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - etui as was intended to store a WWI-period Iron Cross 1st class (ie: \'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse\') being a nicely preserved example that comes as recently found This is an attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - etui as was intended to store a WWI-period Iron Cross 1st class (ie: 'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse') being a nicely preserved example that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used-), condition. The typical black-coloured etui shows a purple-coloured- and/or velvet-based 'inner-section' and shows a neat (and undamaged!) illustration of an IC-first-class on its top: the etui is just moderately used and does show some obvious age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive IC-first-class-etui that was never before part of a collection and that just need a cross to complete: I deem that I have priced this attractive WWI-period example accordingly!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - typical darker-greenish-toned etui as was specifically produced to store an: \'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse\' (or: Iron Cross 1st class) by the maker: \'Klein u. Quenzer\' This is a truly attractive - albeit regrettably empty and/or I deem fairly early-war-period- and/or just moderately used - example of a typical darker-greenish-toned etui as was specifically produced to store an: \'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse\' (or: Iron Cross 1st class) by the maker: \'Klein u. Quenzer\' and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. just moderately used-), condition. The (typical domed-styled) etui comes in an overall nice condition and shows a white-beige-coloured- and/or velvet-based \'inner-section\' and fully preserved silver-coloured IC-symbol on its top. Simply an attractive - and scarcely seen! - etui that can excellenty be used to store an: \'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse\' (or: Iron Cross 1st class) by the maker: \'Klein u. Quenzer\' and was never before in any collection and that is with certainty accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - typical paper- (ie. \'Zellstoff\'-) based pouch as was intended for a: \'BDM-Leistungsabzeichen\' and that shows (inked- and unique!) bearers\'-numeral \'99473\' This is a neat - regrettably empty but nevertheless actually very scarcely encountered! - typical paper- (ie. 'Zellstoff'-) based pouch as was intended for a: 'BDM-Leistungsabzeichen' and that shows (inked- and unique!) bearers'-numeral '99473' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used- and totally undamaged-), condition. The beige-coloured and 'Zellstoff'-based pouch (only sized: 6,8 x 4,3 cms.) shows the printed text: 'BDM-Leistungsabzeichen' and inked bearers'-numeral (that reads: '99473') as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these neat (female- ie. girl-related-) youth-sports'-awards (and pouches!) are quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. Simply a neat example of a 'BDM'-related sports-proficiency-award pouch!
Attractive - albeit regrettably empty! - \'luxuriously-styled\' etui as was intended for storage of a: \'KvK 1. Kl. mit Schwertern\' being a neatly maker- (ie. \'Klein & Quenzer AG\'-) marked specimen that comes in an overall nice- and complete, condition This is an attractive - 'luxuriously-styled' albeit regrettably empty! - example of a typical black-coloured etui as was intended for storage of a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: war-merits-cross first class with swords) being a neatly maker- (ie. 'Klein & Quenzer AG'-) marked specimen that comes in an overall nice- and complete, condition. The etui is of course fully functional (and shows a fully undamaged, detailed and/or silver-grey-coloured 'KvK'-symbol on its top). The etui has a fully preserved, beige-coloured- (ie. velvet-like-) interior-section (as can be seen on the pictures). The ettui was most certainly issued and/or used but is nicely preserved and void of any damage or alike. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a neat example of a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schwerter'-etui that just needs a KvK 1st class by the: 'Klein & Quenzer'-company (ie. '65'-marked specimen) to complete!
Attractive - albeit regrettably incomplete ie. damaged! - \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze\' being a neat and clearly maker- (ie. \'ÜÜ\'-) marked, zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) version as was procuced by the: \'E. Ferd. Wiedmann\'-company This is a neat - and I deem just moderately used ie. worn - so-called: \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze\' (or: bronze-class panzer assault badge or PAB) being a typical later- ie. mid-war-period, neatly maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen as was procuced by the: \'E. Ferd. Wiedmann\'-company and that comes in an overall nice- (and I deem just moderately used- ie. worn- albeit regrettably incomplete- ie. damaged), condition. The badge on offer here concerns an (I deem somewhat later-war-period) zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen that retains most of its (tarnished) bronze-toned finish: moreover, does this piece show nice pronounced detail and/or finish as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge is just a tiny bit dirty ie. stained- and tarnished as mentioned above. As stated above, is the piece a clearly maker- (ie. \'ÜÜ\'-) marked example that shows the various characteristics - such as for example the typically-shaped pin- (ie. pin set-up) and catch-set-up - as only seen on PABs as produced by the: \'E. Ferd. Wiedmann\'-company based in the town of Frankfurt: it deals with a so-called: \'wrap-around type A-pattern\' (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: \'5.2.3.\' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: \'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII\' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The neat piece - which is quite pronounced - naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was found as such at a German private-household and was never before part of a collection. The piece misses regrettably its catch and is (I deem) as such priced according to this condition: still a nice and honest, bronze-class \'variant\'-PAB by the: \'E. Ferd. Wiedmann\'-company that comes in a fully untouched condition!
Attractive - albeit regrettably incomplete ie. damaged! - \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber\' being a neat, later-war-period and maker-marked, zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) version as was procuced by the: \'Frank u. Reif\'-company This is a neat - and I deem moderately used ie. worn - so-called: \'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber\' (or: silver-class panzer assault badge or PAB) being a typical later-war-period, neatly maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen as was procuced by the: \'Frank u. Reif\'-company and that comes in an overall nice- (and I deem just moderately used- ie. worn- albeit regrettably incomplete- ie. damaged), condition. The badge on offer here concerns an (I deem somewhat later-war-period) zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based specimen that retains most of its (tarnished) silver-toned finish: moreover, does this piece show nice pronounced detail and/or finish as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge is just a tiny bit dirty ie. stained- and tarnished as mentioned above. As stated above, is the piece a clearly maker-marked example that shows the various characteristics - such as for example the typically-shaped pin- (ie. pin set-up) - as only seen on PABs as produced by the: \'Frank & Reif’-company based in the town of Stuttgart: it deals with a so-called: \'solid-zinc\'-pattern award (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: \'4.5.3.\' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: \'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII\' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The neat piece - which is quite pronounced - naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was found as such at a German private-household and was never before part of a collection. The piece misses regrettably its catch and is (I deem) as such priced according to this condition: still a nice and honest, silver-class \'variant\'-PAB by the: \'Frank u. Reif\'-company that comes in a fully untouched condition!
Attractive - albeit regrettably incomplete! - example of a WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) so-called: \'Demjansk\'-campaign-shield as executed in magnetic, so-called: \'Eisenblech\' that comes in an overall nice, condition This is an attractive - and/or detailed! - example of the (actually fairly scarcely encountered!) WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) so-called: 'Demjansk'-campaign-shield that comes in an overall nice- (albeit regrettably incomplete but surely worn- and/or once tunic-attached-), condition. The (magnetic and minimally converse-shaped-) shield - which is executed in greyish-silver-coloured so-called: 'Eisenblech' - misses its metal back-plate and cloth (ie. woolen) backing: only 2 of its originally 4 pins ie. prongs are still in place (2 are missing) as can be seen on the pictures. The shield shows some minimal age and/ or staining caused by moderate wear: some minimal staining is visible and/or present, but the shield still retains truly extraordinary detail as to be expected (most ie. all of its period-applied finish is present and or preserved). The shield was of course never cleaned nor polished and comes as found. It was found at a private household and was simply stored as such for decades: it was never before in a collection. It should furthermore be mentioned that these 'Demjansk' campaign-shields are nowadays quite hard to come by. Still an attractive - and naturally original! - example of this collectable and desirable campaign-shield that is priced according to its incomplete ie. relic condition!
Attractive - albeit regrettably incomplete! - WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS etc.) \'Krim\'-campaign-shield (as produced by a by me unidentifed maker) that comes in an issued-, moderately worn- and/or carefully tunic-removed-, condition This is an attractive example of a non-maker-marked, (Heeres o. Waffen-SS etc.) \'Krim\'-campaign-shield that comes in a clearly issued, moderately worn- and/or carefully tunic-removed-, condition. The shield misses its metal-based \'back-plate\' (and woolen cloth \'backing\') and has only two (of its four) prongs still in place (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - which is minimally converse-shaped as more often seen - truly retains most of its original, bright-golden-coloured- and somewhat \'glossy\' finish ie. bronze-like appearance in place and was never cleaned nor polished: it does show some minimal staining caused by minimal wear and/or decades of storage and moderate wear.. Simply an attractive - and desirable! - \'Heeres ie. Waffen-SS\'-pattern example that was surely issued and/or moderately worn. It should be noted that nice - and truly worn! - examples are quite hard to come by: I deem that this attractive - albeit incomplete! - specimen is accordingly priced.
Attractive - albeit regrettably mis-matched - pair of mid-war-period so-called: \'M43\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) EM-type shoulderstraps that comes with its attached \'Übershube\'-pair as was intended for a: \'Soldat des Infanterie-Regiments 112\' The attractive - and fully 'text-book' albeit regrettably mis-matched but most certainly always been together - pair of WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and measures approximately 12,6 (ie. 12,9) cms. in length each. The straps have the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as is more often encountered with these mid-war-period shoulderstrap-pairs) and were as such intended for usage by a simple soldier who served within the infantry-regiment, numbered: '112' (something that can naturally easily be deducted from the attached 'Übershube'-pair). The shoulderstraps - which originate from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recenly acquired for the web-site - are typical 'standard-issued'-examples that have the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks': they were - I deem - only moderately used ie. worn and do show some minimal wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues and came with a (matching) pair of (field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based-) so-called: shoulderstrap-slip-ons (ie. 'Übershuben') attached bearing both the unit-designation: '112' (as executed in equally white-coloured, so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' done in wool as can be seen on the pictures). Both the shoulderstraps and/or: 'Übershuben' come in an overall nice and/or totally undamaged condition (as can be seen on the pictures). These desirable 'M43'-pattern, army-infantry-related EM-type shoulderstraps as piped in the 'weisser'-coloured branchcolour can nowadays easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. Simply an attractive - albeit regrettably mis-matched! - pair that belonged to a: 'Soldat des Infanterie-Regiments 112'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably mis-matched - pair of mid-war-period so-called: \'M43\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) EM-type shoulderstraps that comes with its attached \'Übershube\'-pair as was intended for a: \'Soldat des Infanterie-Regiments 70\' The attractive - and 'text-book' albeit regrettably mis-matched - WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap-pair is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and measures approximately 12 cms. in length each. The straps have the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as is more often encountered with these mid-war-period shoulderstrap-pairs) and were as such intended for usage by a simple soldier who served within the infantry-regiment, numbered: '70' (something that can naturally easily be deducted from the attached 'Übershube'-pair). The shoulderstraps - which originate from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recenly acquired for the web-site - are typical 'standard-issued'-examples that have the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks': they were - I deem - only moderately used ie. worn and do show some minimal wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues and came with a (matching) pair of (field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based-) so-called: shoulderstrap-slip-ons (ie. 'Übershuben') attached bearing both the unit-designation: '70' (as executed in equally white-coloured, so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' done in wool as can be seen on the pictures). Both the shoulderstraps and/or: 'Übershuben' come in an overall nice and/or totally undamaged condition (as can be seen on the pictures). These desirable 'M43'-pattern, army-infantry-related EM-type shoulderstraps as piped in the 'weisser'-coloured branchcolour can nowadays easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. Simply an attractive - albeit regrettably mis-matched! - pair that belonged to a: 'Soldat des Infanterie-Regiments 70'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single - Waffen-SS officers\'-type shoulderboard, as intended for usage by an: \'Standartenführer\' (ie. full-colonel) who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Sanitäts-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - Waffen-SS, officers'-pattern shoulderboard as piped in the neat darker-blue (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured branchcolour and having a black-coloured 'underlay', as was intended for usage by an: 'Standartenführer' (ie. full-colonel) and presumably a medical doctor (ie. 'Arzt') who served within the: 'Waffen-SS Sanitäts-Truppen' (or: medical-troops) and that comes in an overall very nice (I deem clearly used- and/or worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The board - which never had a tongue and that was worn as a board of the 'sew-in'-type as more often encountered - has the darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measures 11,2 cms. in length as more often encountered. The piece shows some moderate age, wear and/or staining and shows a matching (and golden-toned- albeit somewhat tarnished) pair of pips attached denoting the unusual rank of: 'Standartenführer' (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive and fully 'text-book', high-ranked, single Waffen-SS shoulderboard that comes in not the easiest encountered branchcolour!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single - example of a mid- (ie. later-war-) period WH (Heeres) zinc-based skull-device (\'Totenköpf für Pz-Kragenspiegel\') as was intended for usage on (amongst others) the black woolen-based \'Panzer\'-collar-tabs This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single - example of a mid- (ie. later-war-) period, WH (Heeres) typical zinc-based skull-device (ie. 'Totenköpf für Panzer-Kragenspiegel') as was intended for usage on (amongst others) the black woolen-based 'Panzer'-collar-tabs ('Kragenspiegel') and that comes in an overall very nice- (simply never mounted- ie. 'virtually mint- ie. unissued'-), condition. The (detailed!) skull has both its (also zink-based- and never bent) prongs firmly in place: as such, it can naturally excellenty be used to complete any Panzer-type 'Kragenspiegel'. The skull was never cleaned nor polished and does show some minimal age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice occasion to acquire an original, mid- (ie. later-war-) period 'Panzer'-skull for a competitive price!

The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the desirable bright-purple-red- (ie. 'karmesinroter'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length and has the neat 'silk-like'-type piping attached (see pictures). The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was IMO only moderately used and/or worn. It shows a single stripe (ie. 'Lasche') which is constructed from silverish-yellow-coloured- (and standard-pattern-) NCO-braid firmly attached denoting the soldiers-rank of: 'Unteroffiziers-Anwärter'. The strap comes naturally mounted on it functional tongue and shows no defaults nor real damage but does show minimal age and/or staining as mentioned above. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. It should be noted that the bright-purple-red- (ie.

The board - which has a length of approximately 11,8 cms. - comes without tongue as found and was thus a board that was used as a board of the so-called: 'sew-in'-type.

The board shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by years of storage only (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - which originates from a private household and was never before part of a collection - shows a (smaller-sized) bright-golden-toned-, Gothic-styled, so-called: 'K'-cypher, and single pip period-attached: both devices show some minimal tarnish ie. wear but are very nicely preserved denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Oberleutnant'. Simply an attractive - and most certainly desirable! - shoulderboard that belonged to an: 'Oberleutnant eines Kradschützen-Bataillons (Teil einer Panzer-Division)': too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single - neatly \'cyphered\', WH (Heeres) officers\'-type shoulderboard as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - an: \'Oberleutnant und Mitglied eines Panzer-Zuges\' This is a very attractive - albeit regrettably single! - neatly 'cyphered', WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard as was piped in the bright-pink- (ie.

The neat shoulderboard - which is actually hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'fairly rare' - is constructed in the smooth-type (ie. 'moleskin'-like) wool and is per regulation piped in the bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour. The board - which has a length of approximately 10 cms. as more often - comes mounted onto its smaller-sized officer-type tongue as found. The board has a neat 'silver-greyish'-coloured (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued') 'upperdeck' (something that clearly identifies it as WH Heeres-type shoulderboard that was intended for a 'regular' army-tunic). The board shows regular age ie. staining caused by years of storage and/or fair wear (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - which originates from a private household and was never before part of a collection - shows a (larger-sized-) most certainly once bright-golden-toned- (but now somewhat tarnished but nevertheless very rarely seen!) Gothic-styled, so-called: 'Pz'-cypher and single (and regular-sized- albeit equally tarnished) pip period-attached: both devices show clear tarnish ie. wear but are still nicely preserved. Simply an attractive - and most certainly desirable! - shoulderboard that belonged to an: 'Oberleutnant und Mitglied eines Panzer-Zuges': too bad that it is only a single example!

The board - which has a length of approximately 11 cms. - comes without tongue as found and was thus a board that was used as a board of the so-called: \'sew-in\'-type.

The neat shoulderboard - which is actually hard to encounter and can IMO easily be graded 'scarce' - is constructed in the smooth-type (ie. 'moleskin'-like) wool and is per regulation piped in the (very!) bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour. The board - which has a length of approximately 11,7 cms. - comes without tongue as found and was thus a board that was intended to be used as a so-called: 'sew-in'-type example. The board has a neat bright 'silver'-coloured (ie. 'shiny'-) 'upperdeck' (something that clearly identifies it as WH Heeres-type shoulderboard that was intended for usage on a 'dress'-type army-tunic ie. 'Waffenrock'). The board shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by years of storage only (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - which originates from a private household and was never before part of a collection - was found together with the similar-styled board that I offer under #40533: both belonged to the same officer. This example shows a (smaller-sized-) golden-toned-, Gothic-styled- so-called: 'P'-cypher and/or: '1' and/or '7'-numerals period-attached: all three devices show some minimal tarnish ie. wear but are very nicely preserved. Of additional interest is moreover the fact that the 'cyphers' were attached BEFORE the board was assembled (something that is not always the case).

This piece - which is of the unusually seen \'hand-embroidered\'-pattern\' - comes mounted onto a black-coloured and/or \'silk-like\'-type, linnen-based background (that is backed with \'buckram\'-based material!) and shows shows a single oakleaf-bar and single square-sized bar signifying that this patch was intended for usage by an officer with the rank of: \'Leutnant\' ie.: \'Waffen-SS Untersturmführer\' (ie. lieutnant). The piece is just a tiny bit stained (and shows some minimal moth-damage) caused by moderate wear and/or decades of storage but is simply nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures).

'rosaroter'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping, attached. The strap - which is 'backed' with field-grey-coloured wool as to be expected - comes of course mounted onto its smaller-sized and typical Waffen-SS-pattern tongue.

The board shows the desirable black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured branchcolour (and was constructed from the 'ribbed-type' wool as to be expected). It never had a tongue attached and was with certainty intended - and worn! - as a board of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). The board measures approximately 11 cms. in length and shows a matching set of (minimally tarnished, golden-toned and somewhat larger-sized-) '4'- and/or '5'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') and a pair of (equally golden-toned but mis-matched) pips period-attached denoting the rank of: 'Hauptmann' (ie. captain) who served with an army-engineers battalion, numbered: '45'. All four devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished (as can be seen on the pictures). Taking into account, the fact that this board has a somewhat 'sub-dued'-type 'upperdeck' I deem that it was a board that was with certainty intended to be used on a regular, front-used tunic. Simply an attractive WH (Heeres) shoulderboard that belonged a: 'Hauptmann des Pionier-Bataillons 45'!

It never had any tongue attached and was with certainty intended - and worn! - as a board of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). The board measures approximately 11,4 cms. in length and shows a matching set of (minimally tarnished, golden-toned, larger-sized- and/or identical) '9'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') and a single (equally styled) pip period-attached denoting the rank of: 'Oberleutnant' (ie. lieutnant first-class). All three devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished (as can be seen on the pictures). Taking into account, the fact that this board has a somewhat 'sub-dued'-type 'upperdeck' I deem that it was a board that was with certainty intended to be used on a regular, front-used tunic.

All three devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished (as can be seen on the pictures). Taking into account, the fact that this board has a somewhat 'sub-dued'-type 'upperdeck' I deem that it was a board that was with certainty intended to be used on a regular, front-used tunic.

The strap - which is IMO of the regular-issued - (ie. non-private-production-) type - comes mounted on its functional tongue and comes of course in a very nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition overall. The strap shows - as stated above - only minimal wear and/or age: it does show some minimal age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). This example originated from a larger cloth- and/or shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive 'Heeres'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for - and/or used by! - a: 'Soldat der Pionier-Truppen'!

'weisser'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as is more often encountered) and was as such intended for usage by a simple soldier who served within an infantry-regiment. The shoulderstrap - which originates from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recenly acquired for the web-site - is a typical 'standard-issued'-example that has the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck': it was - I deem - clearly used ie. worn as such and does show some minimal wear, age and/or staining. The strap comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongue (as can be seen on the pictures). These desirable 'M41'- ie. 'M43'-pattern, army-infantry-related 'EM-type shoulderstraps as piped in the 'weisser'-coloured branchcolour can nowadays easily be graded 'fairly scarce'.

The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was IMO only moderately used and/or worn. The strap comes naturally mounted on it functional tongue and shows no defaults nor real damage but does show minimal age and/or staining as mentioned above. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. It should be noted that the bright-orange- (ie.

The strap is in a fully 'text-book' condition and has a somewhat greenish- ie. mustard- coloured- and/or linnen-based 'upperdeck' as to be expected. The strap is, moreover, 'backed' with field-grey-coloured wool, something that is more often encountered with genuine tropical- ie. DAK- (or 'Deutsches Afrikakorps'-) related shoulderstraps. The strap is IMO only minimally worn (it is just somewhat faded ie. slightly stained caused by regular usage) and comes in a nice condition overall. It has never been cleaned and still shows some dirt ie. staining as caused by years of storage. As most certainly known are most DAK-shoulderboards offered on todays' market copies: this is naturally a fine and 100% genuine, period piece for which I give a life-time garuantee (as always). Simply an attractive - and as most certainly known rarely encountered! - early, tropical-pattern-, 'Panzer'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap that is priced according to its regrettably 'cut-off' condition: too bad that it is only a single example!

Simply a superb - and as most certainly known very rarely encountered! - tropical-pattern, 'Panzer'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single piece!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, \'M36\'-type (rounded-styled-) \'cyphered\' EM-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: \'Soldat des Eisenbahngeschütze-Abteilungs This is a very attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, 'M36'-type (rounded styled-) 'cyphered'- and/or per regulation bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) piped, enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for - and with certainty worn by! - a: 'Soldat des Eisenbahngeschütze-Abteilungs 19' (or simple soldier who served within an army artillery- ie. armoured-train unit, numbered: '19'), that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which is approximately 13,6 cms. sized in length - has the 'standard-pattern'- and/or darker-green-coloured-, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured- and/or woolen-type piping attached. The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) Gothic-styled 'E'-cypher and '19'-numerals (which are executed in the bright-red- ie. 'hochroter'-coloured wool as to be expected). The strap - which never had a tongue and that was with certainty worn as a strap of the 'sew-in'-type - shows as stated above some usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. This example originated from a larger cloth- and/or shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or early-war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and 'Heeres'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Soldat des Eisenbahn- geschütze-Abteilungs 19'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely enountered! - IMO mid-war-period-, so-called: \'M43\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for an: \'Oberfeldwebel des Nebelwerfer-Abteilungs 329\' This is a truly very attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely enountered! - IMO mid-war-period-, so-called: 'M43'-pattern, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was piped in the neat darker-purple- (ie. 'bordeauxroter'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - an: 'Oberfeldwebel des Nebelwerfer-Abteilungs 329' (or sergeant who served within the army smoketroops-unit numbered: '329'), that comes in an overall nice (IMO only moderately used- ie. worn-) condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in neat darker-purple- (ie. 'bordeauxroter'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length and has the neat (and desirable) 'silk-like'-type piping attached. The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was IMO only moderately used and/or worn. The strap comes naturally mounted on it functional tongue and shows no defaults nor real damage but does show minimal age and/or staining as mentioned above. The strap has the neat somewhat golden-silver-coloured (ie. somewhat sub-dued-) type NCO-braid and two silver-coloured (identical- and zinc-based-) pips attached, denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Oberfeldwebel'. Next to this, it shows the (silver-coloured- and/or: zinc-based-) '3'-, '2'- and '9'-numerals period-attached (as can be seen on the pictures). This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case a very attractive and/or mid- (ie. later-) war-period- and/or: 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap as executed in one of the more scarcely encountered branchcolours of the: 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' that was intended for an: 'Oberfeldwebel des Nebelwerfer-Abteilungs 329'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely seen! - WH (Heeres) neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard as piped in the bright-pink branchcolour as was intended for an: \'Oberleutnant einer Panzerschule\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely seen! - neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard having the pink- (ie. \'rosaroter\'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an: \'Oberleutnant einer Panzerschule\' (or: lieutnant first-class who served within a specific tank training-institute) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit I deem moderately used ie. worn- and/or I deem carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard which is approximately 11,6 cms. sized in length and that is piped in the neat bright-pink- (ie. \'rosaroter\'-) coloured branchcolour as to be expected shows a neat (bright golden-coloured, \'Buntmetall\'-based, Gothic-styled- and/or: larger-sized) so-called: \'Ps\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\') and equally-styled, single pip period-attached denoting that the strap was intended for a junior-officer who held the rank of: \'Oberleutnant\'. Both devices shows some regular age and/or minimal tarnish. The strap never had a tongue attached (it is a specimen of the \'sew-in\'-type) and does show some minimal age-, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was never before in collectors\'-hands and was recently found as such. Simply an attractive (and truly rarely seen!) \'Heeres\' officer-type shoulderstrap that belonged to an: \'Oberleutnant einer Panzerschule\': too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - 'Ostvölker'-collar-tab, as was intended for an Armenian volunteer within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' ie. 'Zugführer' (or: NCO) who served within the 'Armenian Legion' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - 'BeVo'-woven 'Ostvölker'-collar-tab having the golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for an Armenian volunteer within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' ie. 'Zugführer' (or: NCO) who served within the 'Armenian Legion', in overall very nice (ie. virtually mint- and/or never tunic-attached-) condition. The tab is nicely (and entirely!) executed in so-called: 'BeVo-weave technique' and is not confectioned nor folded: it comes as just 'cut of the role'. The piece shows the attractive, interwoven 'NCO'-braid, denoting that that it was intended for usage by a non-commisioned officer-rank (ie. 'Zugführer'). It should be noted that these - original - 'official' 'Ostvölker'-collar-tabs as executed in 'BeVo'-type weave (ie. being of German manufacture by the company of 'BeVo') are considered 'fairly rare'. Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive German produced 'BeVo'-cloth collar-insignia as was intended for an Armenian volunteer ie. 'Zugführer' or NCO who served within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht': too bad that it concerns a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) collar-tab (ie. \'Kragenspiegel\'), as was intended for usage by a: \'Flieger-Ingenieur\' (being a rank similar to: \'Leutnant\') This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) collar-tab (ie. 'Kragenspiegel') as was executed on a bright-pink-coloured background, as was intended for usage by a: 'Flieger-Ingenieur' (being a rank similar to: 'Leutnant'), in overall very nice (and IMO never used- nor tunic-attached-), condition. The tab is executed in the neat smooth-like (ie. 'moleskin'-type) wool and has truly extraordinary detail: the shown craftmanship is simply stunning. The backing is constructed of yellowish-beige-coloured so-called 'buckram'-based cloth (as can be seen on the pictures). These 'pink-coloured' LW-tabs as were intended for staffmembers of the 'Ingenieurkorps der Luftwaffe' are quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'scarce'. Simply a very attractive collar-tab that belonged to a: 'Flieger-Ingenieur': too bad that it is only a single specimen!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - \'Polizei\' (ie. police) officers\'-type shoulderboard as was executed in \'brown-striped\', silver-toned \'braid\' as was intended for usage by a: \'Sonderführer (L) der Polizei\' The truly attractive shoulderboard - which is constructed from the typical bright-green-coloured, 'smooth-type' (ie. moleskin-like-) wool and having the silver toned- and typical, darker-brown-striped so-called: 'braid-based' upperdeck - comes in an excellent condition overall and is hard to be upgraded: the board was possibly issued but never worn and came as recently found. The board is just a tiny bit 'tarnished' simply caused by decades of storage and came mounted onto its thin-shaped (officers'-type) tongue (as can be seen on the pictures). The neat shoulderboard - which measures approximately 11 cms. in length - never had any pip(s) attached denoting the 'Sonderführer'-rank comparable with that of a: 'Leutnant' (ie. lieutnant) as can be seen on the pictures. It should be noted that all (police) 'Sonderführer'-related shoulderboards can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - \'Polizei\' (ie. police) officers\'-type shoulderboard as was executed in \'brown-striped\', silver-toned \'braid\' as was intended for usage by a: \'Sonderführer (M) der Polizei\' The truly attractive shoulderboard - which is constructed from the typical bright-green-coloured, 'smooth-type' (ie. moleskin-like-) wool and having the silver toned- and typical, darker-brown-striped so-called: 'braid-based' upperdeck - comes in an excellent condition overall and is hard to be upgraded: the board was possibly issued but never worn and came as recently found.

Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstrap as was executed in HBT-type cloth and piped in bright-yellow as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier der Flieger- o.

'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for an: 'Unteroffizier der Flieger- o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen' (ie. junior-sergeant who served within a paratrooper- ie. pilots'-unit) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The strap - which measures 10,6 cms. in length - has the neat 'silk-like'-type piping attached and shows the signs of having been moderately worn and used. The strap came mounted on its functional tongue. These HBT-style straps can easily be considered 'fairly scarce' and saw also usage by the (later-war-period-) so-called: LW 'Felddivisionen': simply an attractive example that is not that often offered for sale. Too bad that it is only a single piece!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstrap as was executed in HBT-type cloth as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier der Nachrichten-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstrap as was executed in HBT-type cloth and piped in the bright-brown- (ie. 'hellbrauner'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for an: 'Unteroffizier der Nachrichten-Truppen' (ie. junior-sergeant who served within an airforce signals'-unit) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The strap - which measures 9,7 cms. in length - has the neat 'silk-like'-type piping attached and shows the signs of having been moderately worn and used. The strap came mounted on its functional tongue. These HBT-style straps can easily be considered 'fairly scarce' and saw also usage by the (later-war-period-) so-called: LW 'Felddivisionen': simply an attractive example that is not that often offered for sale. Too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - WH (Luftwaffe), \'cyphered\', NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel der Flg. o. Fallschirmtruppen u. Mitglied einer Kriegsschule\' The attractive - regrettably single albeit still fairly scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstrap is piped in the golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour and shows the desirable, rayon-type piping attached as is more often seen. The strap - which measures approximately 10,2 cms. in length was clearly used ie. worn and originated from a private-household in Germany (it never had a tongue attached and was cleary used as a strap of the 'sew-in-pattern' as can be seen on the pictures). The strap shows a neat, Gothic-styled- (and aluminium-styled) so-called: 'KS'-cypher and single (zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based) pip period-attached denoting that the NCO who wore this strap held the rank- ie. function of: 'Feldwebel der Flieger o. Fallschirmtruppen u. Mitglied einer Kriegsschule' (or: sergeant and member within one of the Luftwaffe war-schools). The straps show the regular-styled, LW-type NCO-braid attached and is constructed from (typical) LW-officers-type cloth (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap was - as stated above - clearly worn and used and does show age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that all LW-type, 'cyphered' shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'scarce' and are not that often offered for sale. Simply an attractive and neatly 'cyphered' NCO-type shoulderstrap that belonged to a: 'Feldwebel der Flieger o. Fallschirmtruppen u. Mitglied einer LW-Kriegsschule'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - white-piped, so-called: \'Reiter-HJ\' ie. \'HJ-Streifendienst\' (\'Hitlerjugend\') shoulderstrap, as was intended for an: \'Oberkameradschaftsführer\' within \'Bann 598\' This is a fairly rarely encountered - albeit regrettably single - white-piped-, so-called: 'Reiter-HJ' ie. 'HJ-Streifendienst' ('Hitlerjugend') shoulderstrap, as was intended for usage by an: 'Oberkameradschaftsführer' within 'Bann 598' (598 = Einbeck), that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The strap - executed in black linnen, having the white-embroidered '598'-numeral and white-coloured- (and rayon-like) piping - comes mounted on its functional tongue as found and most certainly worn. The paper-based 'RzM'-etiket is regrettably missing (something which is certainly caused by regular wear). The piece shows some normal age and wear and measures approximately 11 cms. as usually encountered. It shows a silver-coloured- (and aluminium-based-) pip and piece of silver-coloured rank-braid attached, denoting the unusually seen rank of: 'Ober- kameradschaftsführer'. Simply an attractive and most certainly not that often encountered youth-related shoulderstrap: too bad it is only a single specimen!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless with certainty rarely encountered - (IMO) NCO-type, so-called: \'Ostvölker\' (Luftwaffe-related?) shoulderstrap having the black- (\'schwarzer\'-) coloured branchcolour This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless with certainty rarely encountered - (IMO) NCO-type, so-called: 'Ostvölker' (Luftwaffe-related?) shoulderstrap having the black- ('schwarzer'-) coloured branchcolour and that comes in a wonderful- (ie. hardly- or even never worn-), condtion. The strap is constructed following the typical '1944 cloth-minimising production-manner' using different shades of wool and/or material (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstrap which measures approximately 9,7 cms. in length as more often seen - is truly very unusual in construction: it is executed from the bluish-coloured- and/or smooth-type wool and has the neat, 'silk-like'-type piping attached: moreover, does it show two stripes of silver-toned, NCO-braid attached over the entire length, presumably indicating the soldiers' (ie. NCOs'-) rank (as is more encountered with these later-war-period 'Ostvölker'-related shoulderstraps). The strap comes naturally mounted on its functional tongue. The exact usage and/or signifigance is, however, not known to date. Simply an attractive and rarely seen 'Ostvölker'-related shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but rarely seen! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, \'M35\'-type (pointed-styled-) \'cyphered\'-, EM-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: \'Soldat u. Uffz.-Anwärter des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 7\' This is a very attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, 'M35'-type (pointed-style-) 'cyphered'- and/or per regulation non-piped, enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for - and/or clearly worn by! - a: 'Soldat u. Unteroffiziers-Anwärter des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 7' (or: soldier and/or: junior-sergeant-candidate who served within the army anti-tank- ie. tank-destroyers' unit, numbered: '7'), in overall nice, albeit moderately used ie. worn-, condition. The shoulderstrap - which is approximately 13 cms. sized in length - has the 'standard-type'- and/or: field-grey-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has (of course) no piping (and is as such a typical, early strap of the 'M35'-pattern). The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) '7'-cypher (which is executed in the bright-pink- ie. 'rosa-roter'-coloured wool as to be expected). Moreover, does it show a firmly affixed stripe of NCO-braid attached, denoting the soldiers' rank of: 'Unteroffiziers- Anwärter'. The strap - which comes mounted on its functional tongue - shows as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. This particular example originated from a private household and was never before part of a collection: it was found together with the other single-pieced PZ-Jäger strap I offer under number: 39213. In any case a very attractive and/or with certainty rarely encountered and/or neatly 'cyphered'- ie. or 'Heeres-Panzerjäger'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Soldat u. Unteroffiziers-Anwärter des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 7'!

The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 11,5 cms. sized in length - has the 'standard-type'- and/or: darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has (of course) no piping (and is as such a typical, early strap of the 'M36'- ie. 'M-40'-pattern). The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) Gothic-styled 'P'-cypher and '1'- and/or: '2'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') (which are executed in the bright-pink- ie. 'rosaroter'-coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected). The strap - which comes mounted on its functional tongue - shows as stated above only minimal usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. Simply a very attractive and/or with certainty scarcely encountered and/or neatly 'cyphered'- ie. or 'Heeres-Panzerjäger'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Soldat des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 12'!

The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 12 cms. sized in length - has the 'standard-type'- and/or: darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has (of course) no piping (and is as such a typical, early strap of the 'M36'- ie. 'M-40'-pattern). The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) Gothic-styled 'P'-cypher and '1'- and/or: '2'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') (which are executed in the bright-pink- ie. 'rosaroter'-coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected). The strap - which comes mounted on its functional tongue - shows as stated above only minimal usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. Simply a very attractive and/or with certainty scarcely encountered and/or neatly 'cyphered'- ie. or 'Heeres-Panzerjäger'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Soldat des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 12'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single but scarcely seen! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'tropical-styled\', NCO-type shoulderstrap (as was specifically intended for usage on the KM-tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was intended for a: \'Maat\' (ie. \'Uffz.\') This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless truly scarcely seen! - WH (Kriegsmarine) 'tropical-styled', NCO-type shoulderstrap (as was specifically intended for usage on the KM-tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was intended for a naval-soldier holding the rank of: 'Maat' (ie. 'Unteroffizier' or junior-sergeant) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly worn- ie. moderately used-), condition. The neat strap - which measures approximately 11,4 cms. in length and that has a width of 5,5 cms. as more often seen - was with certainty used- and/or moderately worn. The strap - which is executed in the regular- (ie. slightly 'thicker'-styled- and/or typical tan-coloured) linnen - shows the (typical) darker-blue-coloured and linnen-based, tropical-naval-pattern NCO-braid attached and comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongue denoting the NCOs-rank of a: 'Maat' ie: 'Unteroffizier'. The piece came with a (tropical) tan-coloured anchor-button still attached and shows some minmal glue-remains on its back (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece orginates from an older and larger collection of single shoulderstraps that was compiled over decades and that I recently acquired for the web-site. The neat strap shows some obvious age, wear and/or staining (it is, however, fully undamaged). It should be noted that these attractive KM tropical-styled, NCO-type shoulderstraps can easily be considered 'rare' and come hardly ever for sale: even more so when they come in such a neat and/or minimally used- ie. worn, condition. Too bad that it is only a single example!

The shoulderstrap comes without a tongue: it was worn as a piece of the 'sew-in'-pattern and was carefully 'cut-off'). The strap - which measures approximately 11 cms. in length - shows the (typical early-pattern, 'dotted'-type) silver-toned NCO-braid attached and shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-): '5'- and '7'-cyphers ie. numerals (which are executed in the white- (ie.

The patch shows a single-pieced- (greyish-coloured- and/or 'Feinzink'-based-) gull attached and has the 'standard'-pattern, brownish-yellow-coloured- and/or 'buckram'-based 'backing' attached (see pictures).

The shoulderboard which is approximately 11 cms. sized in length shows the (typical) silverish-toned \'upperdeck\' (having the black-toned and v-shaped inner-braid and black-coloured, velvet-based \'underlay\') and shows a neat (bright golden-coloured, \'Buntmetall\'-based) so-called: \'winged-wheel\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\'), equally-styled \'8\'-numeral (ie. \'Ziffer\') and smaller-sized pip period-attached denoting that the strap was intended for a fairly high-ranked officer who held the rank of: \'Bezirksführer\' who served within the 8th district (being I deem a rank comparable with an: \'Oberstleutnant\' ie. lieutnant-colonel). All three devices shows some regular age and/or minimal tarnish. The board - that shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining - comes mounted onto its functional tongue (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was never before in collectors\'-hands and was recently found as such. Simply an attractive DR- (ie. Deutsche Reichsbahn o.

Mitglied des Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 6' (or: sergeant who served within a specific, artillery-observers' unit, numbered '6') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap has a darker-green-coloured and (smooth) woolen-based 'upperdeck' as to be expected and shows the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroterer'-) coloured and woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The tongue is naturally also present and/or functional. The strap - which measures approximately 10,4 cms. in length and that is executed in so-called: 'boiled wool' and is as such a privately-purchased strap - shows the 'standard'-pattern, (yellowish)silver-coloured 'Heeres'-type NCO-braid, attached. The strap shows a neat (smaller-sized, Gothic-styled- and/or: zinc-based) so-called: 'B'-cypher and equally styled, '6'-numeral and single pip attached denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Feldwebel'. All three devices (as well as the strap itself) show some moderate age- ie. fair tarnish and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible-/present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-type shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'scarce'. This particular example (that came with a pebbled-style tunic-button attached) originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. In any case an attractive and/or early-war period, 'cyphered Heeres'-related shoulderstrap as was intended for a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 6': too bad that it is only a single strap!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - early- (ie. mid-war-) period, so-called: \'M40- o.

Mitglied der Infanterie-Truppen' (or: junior-sergeant who served within an army infantry unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 12,6 cms. in length and has the 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was only moderately used and/or worn. The strap comes mounted onto its functional tongue and just shows moderate age, wear and/or staining as mentioned above. It shows the (typical, silverish-toned) Heeres-type, NCO-braid attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Unteroffizier'. This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. The piece shows some minimal glue-remains on its back caused by having been glued into an album or scrapbook once. Simply an attractive and/or early- (ie. mid-) war-period- and/or: 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap that was intended for an: 'Unteroffizier u. Mitglied der Infanterie-Truppen'!

Mitglied des Art.-Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 44\' (or: siimply soldier who served within a specific, artillery-observers\' unit, numbered: \'44\') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap has a darker-green-coloured and (smooth) woolen-based \'upperdeck\' as to be expected and shows the bright-red- (ie. \'hochroterer\'-) coloured and/or woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap never had a tongue attached and was with certainty worn as a piece of the \'sew-in\'-pattern. The strap measures 11,7 cms. in length and shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: \'Kurbelstickerei\'), Gothic-styled: \'B\'- and/or \'44\'-numerals (ie. cyphers or: \'Ziffers\') attached which are executed in the bright-red- (ie. \'hochroter\'-) coloured wool as to be expected. The strap shows some moderate age and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible-/present). It should be noted that all \'cyphered\'-type shoulderstraps can be easily regarded \'scarce\'. Simply an attractive and/or early- (ie. pre-) war period, \'cyphered Heeres\'-related shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Soldat u. Mitglied des Art.-Beobachtungs-Abteilungs 44\': too bad that it is only a single strap!

Inf.Div. (mot)' (or: simple soldier who served within a tank- ie. infantry-related-, motor-cycle unit) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The strap - which is of the early- (ie. pre-) war- ie. so-called: 'M36 o. M40'-pattern - has a darker-green-coloured 'upperdeck' and has the neat, light-brown- (ie. 'kupferbrauner'-) coloured and/or 'silk-like'-type piping, attached. The tongue is naturally also present. The strap- which is regular-sized- and measures 10,5 cms. This rarely seen strap originated from an older shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. As possibly known, is this typical 'kupferbrauner'-branchcolour very rarely seen and can be regarded as one of the most rarely encountered branchcolours within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht': original EM-type straps are almost never offered for sale and are missing in most shoulderstrap-collections. Simply a very attractive and fully 'text-book', 'Kradschützen'-shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single piece!

The neat strap - which is IMO of the pre- ie. early-war-type and only shows minimal age ie. wear - has a darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the woolen-type piping as more often encountered. The piece never had a tongue and was worn as a strap of the 'sew-in-type' (see pictures). The strap - which measures approximately 12 cms. in length - shows the silverish-coloured and/or standard-type, 'Heeres' NCO-braid attached. The strap shows also the '2', '8' and '2' numerals attached (which are all three executed in silverish-coloured metal (ie. 'Buntmetall'). Next to these it shows a single (also 'Buntmetall'-based-) pip attached, denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Feldwebel' (or sergeant): all devices shows some minimal age- ie. fair tarnish. The strap shows as stated above only moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible-/present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-type shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. In any case a very attractive and/or early-war period-, 'cyphered Heeres'-related shoulderstrap as was intended for a: 'Feldwebel des Infanterie-Regiments 282': too bad that it is only a single strap!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - early- (ie. pre-war-) period WH (Heeres), \'M36\'-pattern (rounded-style-) NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for an: \'Oberfeldwebel eines Heeres-Nachrichten-Abteilungs\' This is an attractive - and as such actually scarcely encountered albeit regrettably single! - early- (ie. pre-war-) period WH (Heeres), 'M36'-type (rounded-style-), NCO-type shoulderstrap as was piped in the bright-yellow (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and with certainty worn by! - an: 'Oberfeldwebel eines Heeres-Nachrichten-Abteilungs' (or sergeant first-class who served within an army signals unit), in overall nice, albeit moderately used and/or worn-, condition. The neat strap - which is IMO of the pre- ie. early-war-type and only shows minimal age ie. wear - has a darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the bright-yellow (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) coloured- and/or woolen-type piping as more often encountered. The piece comes mounted on its original tongue and measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length: it shows the silverish-coloured and/or standard-type, 'Heeres' NCO-braid attached. The strap has two (aluminium-based-) pips attached, denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Oberfeldwebel' (or sergeant first-class): bothdevices shows some minimal age- ie. tarnish. The strap shows as stated above only moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible-/present). Simply an attractive and/or early-war period-, 'Heeres-Nachrichten'-related shoulderstrap as was intended for usage by an: 'Oberfeldwebel eines Heeres-Nachrichten-Abteilungs': too bad that it is only a single example!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - early-pattern, so-called: \'Allgemeine-HJ\' (ie. \'Hitlerjugend\') shoulderstrap as was intended for usage by a: \'Kameradschaftsführer\' who was attached to the: \'Bann 28 - II\' (Bann 28 = Bann Mittelrhein) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless not that easily found! - early-pattern, so-called: 'Allgemeine-HJ' (ie. general 'Hitlerjugend') shoulderstrap as was intended for usage - and clearly worn! - by a: 'Kameradschaftsführer' who was attached to the: 'Bann 28 - II' (Bann 28 = 'Bann Mittelrhein') and that comes in an overall nice- (I deem just moderately 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 and shows the machine-embroidered - by means of 'Kurbelstickerei' (and/or equally coloured) so-called: '28 II'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern'). The straps never had a tongue attached and comes as found and/or issued: it is of 'sewn-in'-pattern and was also used as such). The strap - that shows a single (aluminium-based) pip attached - measures 12 cms. in length and does show some minimal age ie. staining simply caused by minimal 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!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - early-period example of a so-called: \'Flieger-HJ\'-shoulderstrap as was specifically intended for usage by a: \'Hitlerjunge\' who was attached to the: \'Bann 138\' (Bann 138 = Siegen-Wittgenstein) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - early-period example of a so-called: 'Flieger-HJ'-shoulderstrap as piped in the light-blue- (ie. 'hellblauer'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Hitlerjunge' who was attached to the: 'Bann 138' (Bann 138 = Siegen-Wittgenstein) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used and worn- ie. once shirt- or tunic-attached-), condition. The early-period strap - which is executed in the typical, beige-brown- (ie. tan-) coloured linnen - shows the light-blue-coloured- and/or neatly machine-embroidered '138'-numerals (which are executed in so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'). The strap - which measures 11,8 cms. as more often - shows the typical rayon-based 'piping' and comes without tongue as found: it was clearly used as a piece of the 'sew-in'-pattern. It is, however, void of an 'RzM'-etiket something that is more often seen (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap shows moderate wear, age and/or staining and comes (as stated above) in an overall nice condition without showing any damage or alike. It should be noted that all 'Flieger-HJ' shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'scarce'. Simply a neat 'Flieger-HJ'-shoulderstrap that belonged to a a: 'Hitlerjunge' who was attached to the: 'Bann 138' (Bann Siegen-Wittgenstein within the 'Gebiet West-Westfalen')!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - I deem early-war-period, so-called: \'M40\'-pattern WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Soldat der Veterinär-Truppen o. Generalsstab\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - I deem early-war-period, so-called: \'M40\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as was piped in the bright-purple-red- (ie. \'karmesinroter\'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - a: \'Soldat der Veterinär-Truppen o. Generalstab\' (or: simple soldier who served within an army veterinarian- or staff-unit ie. regiment) and that comes in an overall very nice (and I deem only minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the desirable bright-purple-red- (ie. \'karmesinroter\'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,6 cms. in length and has the woolen-type piping attached (see pictures). The strap is fully \'text-book\' in all facets and was (I deem) only minimally used and/or worn. The strap comes naturally mounted onto it functional tongue and shows no defaults nor real damage but does show minimal age and/or staining as mentioned above. This particular example originated from a larger cloth- and/or shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. It should be noted that the bright-purple-red- (ie. \'karmesin-roter\'-) coloured branchcolour ranks amongst the rarest branchcolours as used within the: \'Deutsche Wehrmacht\'. In any case a very attractive and/or early-war-period, \'Heeres\'-related enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: \'Soldat der Veterinär-Truppen o. Generalstab\'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO early- ie. pre-war period-, so-called: \'M36\'-pattern, WH (Heeres) EM-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: \'Soldat eines Kraftfahr-Abteilungs o. Regiments\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO early- ie. pre-war period-, so-called: 'M36'-pattern, WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap, as was piped in the light-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat eines Kraftfahr-Abteilungs o. Regiments' (or: soldier who served within a transport-related unit- ie. regiment) and that comes in an overall very nice (IMO only minimally- or never used-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the light-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,1 cms. in length and has the woolen-type piping attached. The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and comes naturally mounted on it functional tongue and shows no defaults whatsoever. The strap is - as stated above - entirely executed from the the smooth-woolen (ie. 'moleskin'-) based wool and is as such a strap that was (IMO) privately acquired in a tailor-shop or alike. This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or early- (ie. pre-) war-period- and/or: 'Heeres'- ie. 'Nachshub'-related enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Soldat eines Kraftfahr-Abteilungs o. Regiments'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO early-war-period-, WH (Heeres), \'M36\'-pattern- (rounded-style-) EM-type shoulderstrap (being of the unusually encountered, \'wide-sized\'-pattern-) as was intended for a: \'Soldat der Gebirgjäger-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO early-war-period-, WH (Heeres), 'M36'-pattern- (rounded-style-) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap (being of the 'wide-sized'-pattern-) as was piped in the darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or clearly used by! - a: 'Soldat der Gebirgjäger-Truppen' (or: simple soldier who served within a mountain-troopers unit- ie. regiment) in overall nice, albeit moderately used- and/or worn- (ie. clearly tunic-removed-) condition. The neat strap - which is IMO of the pre- ie. early-war-type and measures approximately 11,8 cms. in length - shows only minimal age ie. wear and has a darker-green-coloured- and/or smooth woolen-based 'upperdeck' as to be expected. It has the darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured- and/or: woolen-type piping attached as is more often encountered on these 'M36'-pattern- (rounded-style-) straps (see pictures). Of additional interest is furthermore the fact that this strap is fairly wide-sized and has a width of 5.2 cms. (one and other that was with certainty done to eventually accommodate larger-sized numerals). The strap - which is IMO of the 'standard-issue'-pattern and does NOT originate from a tailor-shop - shows as stated above only moderate usage and/or wear (some staining and/or dust is visible-/present). This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or IMO early-war-period, 'Heeres'-related-, EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Gebirgjäger-Truppen'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO mid- (ie. later-) war-period-, WH (Heeres), \'M43\'-pattern-, cyphered\', NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Grenadier-Regiments “Feldherrnhalle” This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - IMO mid- (ie. later-) war-period-, WH (Heeres), 'M43'-pattern-, 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstrap, as piped in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or with certainty used by! - a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Grenadier-Regiments “Feldherrnhalle” (or: sergeant who served within the famous infanterie-related rifle-regiment named: “Feldherrnhalle”), in overall nice, albeit moderately used- and/or worn-, condition. The neat strap - which is IMO of the mid- ie. later-war-type - shows only moderate age ie. wear and has a field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached as is more often encountered (see pictures). The piece comes mounted on its original tongue and measures approximately 10,5 cms. in length. The strap has the neat somewhat bluish-grey-coloured (ie. sub-dued-) type NCO-braid and/or single- (regular-sized-, silver-coloured- and/or: zinc-based-) pip attached, denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Feldwebel'. Next to this the strap shows a (silverish-grey-coloured- and/or equally zinc-based-) so-called: 'FHH'-cypher period-attached: both devices are only minimally tarnished and/or stained but are still very nice and/or pronounced. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or mid- (ie. later-) war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Grenadier-Regiments “Feldherrnhalle”!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO mid-war period, so-called: 'M43'-pattern, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: 'Feldwebel der Nachschub-Truppen' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO mid-war period, so-called: 'M43'-pattern, WH (Heeres) NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was piped in the neat light-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - a: 'Feldwebel der Nachschub-Truppen' (or sergeant and possibly a driver who served within an army transport unit ie. regiment), in an overall nice (IMO only moderately used-) condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the light-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,2 cms. in length and has the neat (and desirable) 'silk-like'-type piping attached. The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was IMO only moderately used and/or worn. The strap comes naturally mounted on it functional tongue and shows no defaults nor real damage but does show minimal age and/or staining as mentioned above. The strap has the neat silverish-coloured (ie. early-pattern) type NCO-braid and/or single (regular-sized- and/or zinc-based-) pip attached, denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Feldwebel'. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or mid- (ie. later-) war-period- and/or: 'Heeres'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Feldwebel der Nachschub-Truppen'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO mid-war period, so-called: 'M43'-pattern-, WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied der Artillerie-Schießschule Thorn' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - IMO mid-war period, so-called: 'M43'-pattern-, WH (Heeres), NCO-type shoulderboard, as was piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) branchcolour, as was intended for - and worn by! - a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied der Artillerie-Schießschule Thorn' (or artillery-sergeant and member - IMO a trainer - who served within the artillery-shooting school based in the town of Thorn), in overall very nice, albeit moderately used ie. worn-, condition. The strap - which has the 'standard-type'- and/or: field-grey-coloured-, woolen-based 'upperdeck' - has the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length. The board shows the silverish-coloured- (ie. 'standard-type'-) NCO-braid attached and shows one ('Buntmetall'-based-) pip attached denoting the soldiers'-rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie. sergeant). Moreover, has the strap a neat (and rarely seen!) Gothic-styled- and/or also 'Buntmetall'-based (and regular-sized-) so-called: 'S'-cypher attached, denoting the NCOs function at the: 'Artillerie-Schießschule'. Of interest is furthermore the fact that the board was constructed by using a standard-type 'Unteroffiziers'-type board: the piece of horizontally-mounted NCO-braid (being of the more early-period-type) is loosely added as a: 'Lasche' (see photos). The board comes mounted on its original tongue and is in a very nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition overall. It shows as stated above only minimal usage (some minimal age, dust and/or staining is present and/or visible) and I deem that the board has been crudely tunic-removed (causing a tear in the button-hole of the tongue). This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or mid- (ie. later-) war-period- and/or: 'Heeres'-related enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Feldwebel u.

Unteroffizier-Anwärter des Infanterie-Regiments 70' (or: soldier and/or junior-sergeant-candidate who served within the army-infantry regiment numbered: '70'), in an overall nice (IMO only moderately used-) condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11 cms. in length and has the neat (and desirable) 'silk-like'-type piping attached. The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was IMO moderately used and/or worn. The strap comes naturally mounted on it functional tongue and shows no defaults nor real damage but does show minimal age, wear and/or staining as mentioned above. The strap came with a single- (field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based-) so-called: slip-on (ie. 'Übershube') attached, bearing the signification: '70' (as executed in equally white-coloured so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' done in wool as can be seen on the pictures). Moreover, does this example show a single stripe (ie. 'Lasche') which is constructed from silverish-coloured- (and/or early-type- and/or standard-pattern-) NCO-braid attached denoting the soldiers-rank of: 'Unteroffiziers-Anwärter'. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired.

The strap has the neat somewhat bluish-grey-coloured (ie. sub-dued-) type NCO-braid attached, denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Unteroffizier'. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired.

'hochroter'-) coloured and/or: desirable 'silk-like'-type branchcolour ie. piping, attached. The strap was IMO only minimally used- and/or worn and does show only minimal staining and/or age mainly caused by decades of storage only (the strap is, however, fully void of any damage as can be seen on the pictures). The strap comes naturally mounted on its functional tongue and has the neat 'standard'-type-, bluish-grey-coloured- (ie. truly sub-dued-) 'Heeres'-type- NCO-braid and one (regular-sized- and alumnium-based-) pip attached, denoting the NCOs'-rank of: 'Wachtmeister o.

'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour measures approximately 11 cms. in length and has the desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as is more often encountered with these later-war-period straps). The strap is constructed following the typical '1944 cloth-minimising production-manner', using different shades of wool and/or material. It comes naturally mounted on its functional tongue and shows the neat (Gothic-styled) 'US'-cyphers (being 'machine-stitched'-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' in white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured wool). It should be noted that all 'M44'-style, EM-type straps are actually quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'scarce': even more so when they are neatly 'cyphered' as is this example. Of interest is, moreover, that this later-war-period strap is executed in darker-green-coloured wool: I have a similar pair in my own private collection. The piece shows some truly minimal age, wear and/or staining. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a rare 'M44'-pattern shoulderstrap that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Infanterie-Truppen u. Mitglied eines Unteroffiziersschule'!

It should be noted that all 'M44'-style, NCO-type straps are actually quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'scarce': even more so when they are piped in the seldomly seen light-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour. The piece shows some truly minimal age, wear and/or staining. Too bad that it is only a single example!

The strap has the neat bright-green-coloured, 'silk-like'-type piping and is approximately 10,8 cms. sized in length as more often encountered. It is constructed following the typical '1944 cloth-minimising production manner' using different shades of wool and/or other 'left-over'-material. The strap is as stated in a superb condition overall and can IMO not be upgraded: just some minimal aging ie. staining is noticable, simply caused by decades of storage only. Simply a very nice M44-type strap in not the most commonly encountered branchcolour: too bad that it is only a single piece!

The strap is constructed following the typical '1944 cloth-minimising production manner' using different shades of wool and/or other 'left-over'-material. The strap comes as stated above in a moderately used- ie. worn, condition overall and will IMO hard to be upgraded: just some minimal aging ie. staining is noticable, simply caused by fair wear and/or decades of storage. Simply a very nice M44-type strap in not the most commonly encountered branchcolour: too bad that it is only a single piece!

'non-privately-purchased') so-called: 'M43'-pattern, WH (Heeres) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap is piped in the desirable white- (ie.

'weisser'-) coloured- and/or: 'silk-like'-type piping attached and comes mounted onto its simplified tongue (as is more often encountered with these later-war-period shoulderstraps) and was as such intended for usage by a simple soldier who served within an infantry-related, machine-gunners unit, numbered: '14' (something that can naturally easily be deducted from the attached 'Übershube'-pair). The shoulderstrap - which originates from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recenly acquired for the web-site - is a typical 'standard-issued'-example that has the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck': it was - I deem - only moderately used ie. worn and does show some minimal wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap came with a neat (field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based-) so-called: shoulderstrap-slip-on (ie. 'Schulterstück-Übershube') attached bearing the unit-designation: 'M14' (as executed in equally white-coloured, so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' done in wool as can be seen on the pictures).

These desirable \'M41\'- ie. \'M43\'-pattern, army-Panzer-related EM-type shoulderstraps as piped in the \'rosaroter\'-coloured branchcolour can nowadays easily be graded \'fairly scarce\'. Simply an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - shoulderstrap that belonged to a: \'Soldat eines Panzer- o. Panzerjäger-Abteilungs o. Regiments\'!

'Totenkopf für Panzer-Kragenspiegel') being of the desirable '3-pronged'-pattern as was intended for usage on (amongst others) the black woolen-based 'Panzer'-collar-tabs ('Kragenspiegel') and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. I deem once mounted- ie. moderatelty used- and/or worn-), condition. The skull has all three of its (also steel-based) prongs firmly in place: as such, it can excellenty be used to complete a 'Kragenspiegel'. The skull was never cleaned nor polished and does show some minimal age and/or (paint?)staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice occasion to acquire an original, mid- (ie. later-war-) period, 'three-pronged'-pattern 'Panzer'-skull for a justified price!

'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and hardly worn by! - a: 'Soldat der Infanterie-Truppen' (or: simple soldier who served within an army-infantry-related-, regiment ie. unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (and just moderately used-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,4 cms. in length and has the neat (and desirable) 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was hardly used nor worn. The strap comes naturally mounted on its functional tongue and shows no defaults nor damage but does show minimal age, wear and/or staining as mentioned above. This particular example originated from a large cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. In any case an attractive and/or mid- (ie. later-) war-period- and/or: 'Heeres'-related enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap that was intended for - and/or used by! - 'Soldat der Infanterie-Truppen'!

The neat shoulderstrap - which is piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour - measures approximately 11,2 cms. in length and has the neat (and desirable) 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was clearly used and worn.

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-pattern shoulderboard as was specifically intended for usage by a WH (Heeres) \'Heeresfeldpostinspektor\' (being of a rank comparable with an: \'Oberleutnant\'-rank) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless with certainty scarcely encountered! - neatly \'cyphered\', officers-pattern shoulderboard (ie. \'Schulterstück für Offiziere des Heeres\') as was specifically intended for usage by a WH (Heeres) \'Heeresfeldpostinspektor\' (or: army-fieldpost-inspector being of a rank comparable with an: \'Oberleutnant\'-rank) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately worn ie. most certainly once tunic-attached-), condition. The board - which has an approximate length of 10,3 cms. - is executed in the \'smooth\'-like- and/or (typical) darker-green-coloured wool (aka moleskin\'-wool). It has the (bright- ie. lemon-yellow- or: \'zitronengelber\'-coloured-) branchcolour and typical silver-greyish-coloured \'upperdeck\' (showing an - interwoven and equally bright-yellow-coloured - \'stripe\' something that was obligatory for all shoulderboards as worn and/or used by the various \'Feldpost\'-service officials). The board - which was worn on the \'standard\'-type, field-grey-coloured \'Heeres\'-officers-pattern tunics - shows a bright-golden-coloured (ie. I deem \'Buntmetall\'-based-) \'FP\'-cypher and single (equally bright-golden-coloured- and equally styled) pip, period-attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The board never had a tongue attached and was intended to be used as a board of the sew-in-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). Of interest is, morover, the fact that the \'FP-cypher\' was attached BEFORE the piece was entirely assembled. The board was I deem moderately used and/or worn and shows as stated above moderate wear and/or age. Simply a very attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - neatly \'cyphered\' so-called: \'Feldpost\'-related shoulderboard: x-times more rarely encountered than a \'regular\' WH \'Oberleutnant\'-shoulderboard!

The shoulderboard - which is approximately 11,5 cms. sized in length and that constructed from (typical) black-coloured wool - is having a typical black-coloured \'upperdeck\' (showing the silver-coloured interwoven \'V\'-signs as to be expected) and shows a neat (silver-coloured, aluminium-based) so-called: \'winged-railroad-wheel\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\') and equally-styled set of (double) \'2\'-numerals period-attached denoting that the strap was intended for a BZP-official holding the rank of a: \'Bahnschutzmann\'. All three devices shows some regular age and/or minimal tarnish. The board - that shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining - never had a tongue attached (it is a specimen of the \'sew-in\'-type) and was once glued into an album or scrapbook (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was never before in collectors\'-hands and was recently found as such. Simply an attractive \'BZP\'- (o. \'Bahnschutzpolizei\'-) related shoulderboard that belonged to a: \'Bahnschutzmann\': too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - neatly \'cyphered\'- (and - I deem - early-war-period!)

The shoulderstrap - which is fully 'text-book' in all facets and that measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length (and that has a width of 5,5 cms. as usually seen) has the typical field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and comes mounted onto its functional tongue. The strap shows the neat interwoven 'crossed-anchors'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') and '2'-numeral (which are executed in golden-yellow-coloured linnen) denoting the rank of simple: 'Soldat'. The strap - shows some minimal age and/or wear and does show some (tiny) mothholes (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that ALL 'Küstenartillerie' insignia-pieces are actually quite hard to encounter: those 'cyphered' examples even more so, which grades them easily as 'very scarce'. Simply an attractive, 'cyphered' naval- ie. 'Marine-Artillerie'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for usage on the field-grey-coloured attire: too bad it is only a single example!

The shoulderstrap - which is fully 'text-book' in all facets and that measures approximately 10,6 cms. in length (and that has a width of 5,5 cms. as usually seen) has the typical darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and comes mounted onto its functional tongue. The strap - which has the typical golden-toned KM-type NCO-braid attached and that shows a golden-toned anchor-button attached - shows the neat (golden-toned- and I deem - 'Buntmetall'-based) 'winged-anchor'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') - which is period-attached by means of hand-stitching! - and a single (aluminium-based- and smaller-sized) pip attached denoting the rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie. sergeant). The neat strap - shows some minimal age and/or wear and shows some minimal moth-damage (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that this strap was originally a 'cyphered' EM-type coastal-artillery strap (having a golden-yellow-toned and interwoven 'cypher') that was re-used after the soldier was promoted (something that I have seen before). It should be noted that ALL 'Küstenartillerie' insignia-pieces are actually quite hard to encounter: those 'cyphered' examples even more so, which grades them easily as 'scarce'. Simply an attractive, neatly 'cyphered' naval- ie. 'Marine-Artillerie'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap that was intended for usage on the field-grey-coloured attire: too bad it is only a single example!

The strap - which has the typical golden-toned KM-type NCO-braid attached and that shows a golden-toned anchor-button attached - shows the neat (golden-toned- and I deem - 'Buntmetall'-based) 'crossed-anchors'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') and two (equally-styled- and smaller-sized) pips attached denoting the rank of simple: 'Oberfeldwebel' (ie. sergeant first-class). The neat strap - shows some minimal age and/or wear (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that this strap was originally an EM-type coastal-artillery strap (having a golden-yellow-toned and interwoven 'cypher') that was re-used after the soldier was promoted (something that I have seen before).

The shoulderstrap - which is fully 'text-book' in all facets and that measures approximately 10,6 cms. in length (and that has a width of 5,5 cms. as usually seen) has the typical field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and comes mounted onto its functional tongue. The strap - which has the typical golden-toned KM-type NCO-braid attached - shows the neat (yellowish-golden-toned- and neatly machine-embroidered) 'anchor'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') denoting the rank of simple: 'Unterfeldwebel' (ie. candidate-sergeant). The neat strap - shows some only minimal age and/or wear (as can be seen on the pictures).

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - NSB (ie. \'Nationaal Socialistische Beweging\') so-called: \'WA\' (ie. \'Weerafdelingen\') shoulderboard as was intended for usage by a high-ranked official with the rank of: \'WA-Banleider\' This is a truly attractive example of a NSB (ie. 'Nationaal Socialistische Beweging') (being the Dutch WWII pro-German Party) so-called: 'WA' (ie. 'Weerafdelingen') shoulderboard, as was intended for usage by a high-ranked WA-official with the rank of: 'WA-Banleider', that comes in an overall very nice (albeit IMO moderately worn and/or used- ie. tunic-removed-) condition. This movement - ie. the WA - could be compared with the German SA-stormtroopers and was (re-)founded in 1941 after having been disbanded for various years. The shoulderboard is per regulation executed in bright-red-coloured wool and shows a golden-toned 'upperdeck' (as executed in twisted- and/or golden-toned braid). The piece has a length of 11,5 cms. and comes with its (period) golden-toned button attached (see pictures). Of addtional interest is moreover that the piece shows an inked NSB-inventory-number on its back (that reads: '153') something that is more often - but not always! - seen on genuine NSB-related insignia. As stated above comes this piece in an overall nice albeit clearly worn condition without showing any damages nor defaults whatsoever. It has clearly been worn and just shows some darkened tarnish as more often encountered. Simply an attractive and actually scarcely encountered NSB-related shoulderboard which is not that often offered for sale!

The neat strap - which is of the typical early- ie. pre-war-type - just shows some moderate age and wear but is void of any real damage or alike: it has the darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and does show as stated above the black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured branchcolour and/or woolen-type piping attached (as more often seen). The shoulderstrap comes mounted onto its functional tongue and does show some moderate age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap - which measures approximately 12 cms. in length - shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) so-called: '6'-cypher ie. numeral (which was once executed in black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured and 'white-piped' wool- ie. linnen as to be expected: for unclear reasons has the black-toned inner-part been removed as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a neat and/or fully 'text-book' and actually not that often encountered! - 'Heeres'-type, 'cyphered' EM-type shoulderstrap that belonged to a: 'Soldat des Pionier-Batallions 6': too bad that it is only a single specimen!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - so-called: \'M41- ie. M43-pattern\', WH (Heeres) EM-type shoulderstrap as was intended for - and/or moderately worn by! - a: \'Soldat der Kradschützenbtle. der Pz.Div. u. Inf.Div. (mot)\' The attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - shoulderstrap is (I deem) of the early- ie. mid-war-period- (ie. 'M41- o. M43'-) pattern and does show only moderate age, wear and/or minimal staining. The strap has the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and does show the neat light-brown- (ie. 'kupferbrauner'-) coloured branchcolour and desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstrap comes mounted onto its functional tongue attached and was with certainty a piece that was used onto a 'front-type'-tunic. The strap - which measures approximately 10,5 cms. in length - was used by a: 'Soldat' (ie. simple soldier) who was attached to a specific tank- ie. infantry-related, motor-cycle unit. As possibly known, is this typical 'kupferbrauner'-branchcolour very rarely seen and can in my opinion be regarded as one of the most rarely encountered branchcolours within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht': original EM-type straps are almost never offered for sale and are missing in most shoulderstrap-collections. Simply a very attractive and fully 'text-book', 'Kradschützen'-shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single specimen!

The shoulderstrap comes mounted onto its functional tongue attached and was with certainty a piece that was used onto a 'front-type'-tunic. The strap - which measures approximately 11 cms. in length - was used by a: 'Soldat' (ie. simple soldier or medical orderly) who was attached to a specific: 'Sanitäts-Abteilung' (being a specific army medical-unit). Simply, a neat early- (ie. mid-) war-period, EM-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: 'Soldat eines Sanitäts-Abteilungs o. Regiments' and that is I deem with certainty accordingly priced!

The strap - which measures approximately 11 cms. in length - was used by an: 'Oberfeldwebel' (ie. sergeant first-class or medical orderly) who was attached to a specific: 'Sanitäts-Abteilung' (being a specific army medical-unit).

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS officers\'-pattern shoulderboard as was intended for - and clearly used by! - an: \'SS-Hauptsturmführer der Infanterie-Truppen\' This is a very attractive - albeit regrettably single! - example of a Waffen-SS officers\'-pattern shoulderboard, having a white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured secondary branchcolour as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - an: \'SS-Hauptsturmführer der Infanterie-Truppen\' (or: captain who served within an infantry unit) and that comes in overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which never had a tongue and that is of the \'sew-in\'-pattern - has a somewhat dull- ie. greyish-silverish-coloured \'upperdeck\' and is executed in black-coloured wool and has the neat \'rayon\'-type, white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured, piping. The board - which measures approximately 10,3 cms. in length - shows two non-identical (regular-sized, golden-toned and/or \'Buntmetall\'-based-) pips attached, denoting the officers\'-rank of: \'SS-Hauptsturmführer\'. (The officer who wore this board was obviously once promoted, something that corroborates the presence of two differently-styled pips). The board has most certainly been worn and shows some moderate age, usage and/or moderate staining. Simply an attractive Waffen-SS officers\'-type shoulderboard in a desirable branchcolour: I deem that I have priced this neat Waffen-SS-pattern board accordingly!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as piped in the golden-yellow-coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by a soldier who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Kavallerie o. Aufklärungs-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as piped in the golden-yellow-coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by a soldier who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Kavallerie o. Aufklärungs-Truppen\' (ie. SS-reconnaisance- or: cavalry-troops) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstrap has the typical Waffen-SS-pattern- and/or: smaller-shaped tongue attached as only observed on genuine Waffen-SS-pattern straps and has the neat golden-yellow- (ie. \'goldgelbener\'-) coloured branchcolour and/or \'silk-like\'-type branchcolour (ie. piping) attached (as can be noticed on the pictures). The shoulderstrap - which is 11 cms. sized in length as more often encountered - shows the field-grey-coloured- and/or: woolen-based \'underlay\' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows some minimal age and/or staining simply caused by minimal wear and/or age. In any case is this a fully garuanteed, 100% original Waffen-SS shoulderstrap that comes in a wonderful condition and that is consequently priced. The strap shows hardly any wear nor damage and is as stated only slightly used ie. worn. It should be noted that these original, period Waffen-SS shoulderstraps can easily be graded \'scarce\': even more so when they are piped in the desirable, golden-yellow-coloured- (ie. \'Waffen-SS Kavallerie o. Aufklärungs-Truppen\'- or: SS-reconnaisance- ie. cavalry-troops-related-) branchcolour: too bad that it is only a single specimen!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as was intended for usage by a: \'Soldat\' (ie. \'SS-Mann\') who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Feldgendarmerie-Truppen\' The neat strap - which comes naturally mounted on its original and/or typically shaped- (ie. \'small-sized\'-) SS-type tongue as is more often encountered on genuine Waffen-SS shoulderstraps - has the desirable bright-orange- (ie. \'orangeroter\'-) coloured- and/or: \'rayon\'-type piping attached, denoting that it was intended for a soldier that served within the: \'Waffen-SS Feldgendarmerie-Truppen\' (or: notorious field-police troops). The back of the strap (which measures 11 cms. in length as is more often encountered) is executed in field-grey-coloured wool, as is more often observed with genuine Waffen-SS-type shoulderstraps. The piece shows some minimal age, wear and/or minimal staining but comes in a wonderful (and I deem only minimally used- ie. worn-) condition. It should be noted that these orange-piped Waffen-SS EM-type shoulderstraps are very desirable and are not that often offered for sale. Simply a very attractive and/or fully textbook \'Waffen-SS-Feldgendaremerie\'-shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single piece!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap, as was piped in the bright-pink-coloured branchcolour, as was intended for usage by an: \'SS-Mann\' who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Panzer-Truppen\' The neat shoulderstrap has the neat bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured- and/or 'silk-like'-type branchcolour (ie. piping) attached: the strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and is truly hard to be upgraded. The shoulderstrap - which measures 10,5 cms. sized in length as more often encountered - shows the (typical) 'Waffen-SS'-styled-, field-grey-coloured- and/or: woolen-based 'underlay' (constructed from so-called: Italian wool (or: 'drap-orti') and typical (smaller-sized) tongue as only seen on genuine Waffen-SS-type shoulderstraps (see pictures). The strap shows some minimal age and/or staining and or fading, simply caused by moderate wear and/or age. In any case is this a fully garuanteed, original Waffen-SS Panzer shoulderstrap that is moderately used ie. worn and that is IMO consequently priced. These straps were worn on the regular field-grey tunics but could also be worn on the black-coloured Panzer wrap-around-tunics. This strap originates from a private household in Germany where it was found together with the strap I offer under #42371: both pieces were most likely worn as a pair but do show minimal differences (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these original, period- Waffen-SS-shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'scarce': even more so when they come in the desirable pink-coloured- (ie. 'SS-Panzer-Truppen'-branchcolour!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was piped in the light-blue-coloured branchcolour, as was intended for usage by an: \'Unterscharführer\' who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Nachschub-Truppen\' The neat shoulderstrap has the neat light-blue- (ie. 'hellblauer'-) coloured branchcolour and/or 'silk-like'-type branchcolour (ie. piping) attached: the strap is fully 'text-book' in all facets and is truly hard to be upgraded. The shoulderstrap - which measures 10,3 cms. sized in length as more often encountered - shows the (typical) 'Waffen-SS'-styled-, field-grey-coloured- and/or: woolen-based 'underlay' (see pictures). The strap shows some minimal age and/or staining and or fading, simply caused by moderate wear and/or age. It has the yellowish- (ie. silverish-grey-) coloured (ie. somewhat stained) NCO-braid attached denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Unterscharführer'. In any case is this a fully garuanteed, original Waffen-SS shoulderstrap that is moderately used ie. worn and that is IMO consequently priced. It should be noted that these original, period- Waffen-SS shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'scarce': even if they are piped in the more commonly encountered, light-blue-coloured- (ie. 'SS-Nachshub-Truppen'- or SS transport-troops-related-) branchcolour!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, officers\'-type shoulderstrap as piped in the darker-blue-coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an: \'SS-Untersturmführer o. Arzt\' who served within the: \'Waffen-SS Sanitäts-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - Waffen-SS, officers'-type shoulderstrap as piped in the darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an: 'SS-Untersturmführer o. Arzt' (ie. lieutnant or medical doctor) who served within the: 'Waffen-SS Sanitäts-Truppen' and that comes in overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn- and carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The neat shoulderboard - which never had a tongue attached and that is of the 'sew-in'-pattern - has a somewhat 'sub-dued'- ie. greyish-silverish-coloured 'upperdeck' and is executed in black-coloured wool. It shows the neat 'rayon'-type, darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured, piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - which measures approximately 11,3 cms. in length - never had any 'cypher' nor pip(s) attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'SS-Untersturmführer'. The board has most certainly been worn and shows some moderate age, usage and/or moderate staining. Simply an attractive Waffen-SS officers'-type shoulderboard that comes in a desirable branchcolour: I deem that I have priced this neat Waffen-SS-pattern officers'-type shoulderboard accordingly!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) early- (ie. pre-war-) period, \'M36\'- (ie. \'M40\'-) type (pointed-styled and neatly \'cyphered\') EM-type shoulderstrap as was specifically intended for a: \'Soldat des Artillerie-Regiments 62\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, \'M36\'- (ie. \'M40\'-) type (pointed-styled and neatly \'cyphered\' and/or per regulation non-piped) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - a: \'Soldat des Artillerie-Regiments 62\' (or: simple soldier who served within the army artillery unit ie. regiment numbered: \'62\') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 12 cms in length - has the \'standard-type\' and/or darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based \'upperdeck\' and has (of course) no piping attached. The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: \'Kurbelstickerei\') \'6\'- and/or: \'2\'-numerals (ie. cyphers or: \'Ziffern\') which are both executed in the bright-red- (ie. \'hochroter\'-) coloured wool as to be expected. The strap - which comes mounted onto its functional tongue - shows as stated above some minimal usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all \'cyphered\'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded \'fairly scarce\'. This example originated from a larger cloth- and/or shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired: it came together with the similarly-styled (but somewhat smaller-sized) strap that I offer under number 61028: both pieces came without doubt from the same soldier who wore these as a pair. In any case an attractive and/or early-war-period, neatly \'cyphered\' and \'Heeres-Artillerie\'-related EM-type shoulderstrap that was intended for - and used by! - an: \'Soldat des Artillerie-Regiments 62\'!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) general-officers\'-type collar-tab as was intended for a general-officer (and that comes in an overall very nice- ie. moderately used and/or carefully tunic-removed condition) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless still fairly rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres) general-officers'-type collar-tab (ie. 'Kragenspiegel für Generale des Heeres') as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - a general-officer and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. moderately used- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The neat collar-tab - which is executed in bright-golden-coloured- (ie. early-war-type-) so-called: 'braid' - measures approx. 9,5 x 4,2 cms. and shows a bright-red-coloured- and/or typical 'smooth'-woolen-based 'underground' as to be expected. The piece was with certainty once worn and was clearly tunic-removed (as can be seen on the pictures). The tab shows truly extraordinary detail and is a great example of the employed craftmenship used in the days. The collar-tab is just a tiny bit tarnished ie. stained (simply caused by years of storage ie. moderate wear). The piece originates from a private-household in Germany and was never before part of any collection. Simply a very attractive - and/or truly detailed! - WH (Heeres) general-officers'-type collar-tab ie. 'Kragenspiegel für Generale des Heeres': too bad it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) general-officers\'-type shoulder- board, as was executed in golden-/silver toned so-called: \'Cellueon\', as was intended for usage by a: \'Generalleutnant des Heeres\' The truly attractive shoulderboard - which is constructed from the bright-red- (almost orange-) coloured, 'smooth-type' (ie. moleskin-like-) wool and having the golden-/silver toned- so-called: 'Cellueon'-based upperdeck - comes in an excellent condition overall and is hard to be upgraded: the board was with certainty worn and came as recently found. The board is just a tiny bit 'tarnished' simply caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear and was with certainty once tunic-attached: some minimal stitching-holes are noticable. The neat shoulderboard - which measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length - comes with a larger-sized-, bright-silver-coloured-, general-officers'-pip period-attached denoting the rank of a: 'Generalleutnant des Heeres' (see pictures). The shoulderboard came without tongue and was clearly intended to be used as a piece of the 'sew-in'-type. It should be noted that all general-officers' shoulderboards can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Too bad that it is only a single example!

The board is just a tiny bit 'tarnished' simply caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear and was with certainty once tunic-attached: some minimal stitching-holes are noticable (I deem that it was clearly 'cut-off a tunic'). The neat shoulderboard - which measures approximately 10,3 cms. in length - never had any general-officers'-pip(s) attached denoting the rank of a: 'Generalmajor des Heeres' (see pictures). The shoulderboard came without tongue and was clearly intended to be used as a piece of the 'sew-in'-type.

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) general-officers\'-type shoulderboard, as was intended for a general-officer with the rank of: \'Generalleutnant\', in overall very nice (ie. minimally used and/or IMO tunic-removed-) condition This is a truly attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless still fairly rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres) general-officers'-type shoulderboard as was intended for - and IMO worn by - a general-officer with the rank of: 'Generalleutnant', in overall very nice (ie. minimally used and/or IMO tunic-removed-) condition. The neat shoulderboard - which shows an 'upperdeck' that is executed in bright-golden- and/or silver-coloured- (ie. later-war-type-) so-called: 'Cellueon' - measures approx. 11 cms. in length and shows a bright-red-coloured- and/or 'smooth'-woolen-based 'underground' as to be expected. The board never had a tongue attached and was thus a piece that was worn as a piece of the 'sew-in-type' (it was with certainty once worn and was clearly 'cut-off' a tunic - see pictures). The board shows a single (and per regulation silver-coloured-) pip attached and was thus intended for a general-officer with the rank of: 'Generalleutnant'. The board shows truly extraordinary detail and is a great example of the employed craftmenship of the days. It is a tiny bit tarnished ie. stained (simply caused by years of storage ie. moderate wear). The piece originates from a private household and was never before in a collection: it was found together with the (equally single-) general-officers'-type shoulderboard which I offer under number 36688: both insignia-pieces belonged to the same army general-officer who kept and/or stored these neat insignia-pieces for decades. Simply a very attractive and/or truly detailed WH (Heeres) general-officers'-type shoulderboard: too bad it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard as (dual)piped in the white-coloured branchcolour as was intended for a: \'Leutnant der Reserve des Infanterie-Regiments 37\' The attractive - albeit regrettably single - WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard is (dual)piped in the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and has the typical dove-grey-coloured 'underlay' and was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - a: 'Leutnant der Reserve des Infanterie-Regiments 37' (or: reserve-lieutnant who served within the 'Infanterie'- (ie. infantry-) regiment numbered: '37') and comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used-, worn- and/or: carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard is a 'text-book'-example of the 'Heeres'-type, 'Infanterie'-shoulderboard and shows the silver-coloured (ie. somewhat 'shiny'-pattern) 'upperdeck' (as can be noticed on the pictures). The board show the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and has the typical dove-grey-coloured 'underlay' (and was constructed from the typical 'smooth'-type wool as to be expected). The board never had a tongue attached and was clearly used as a board of the 'sew-in-'type (as can be seen on the pictures). It measures approximately 11 cms. in length and was most certainly issued- and/or worn as such and does show some moderate age, wear and/or staining as to be expected. The board has a pair of (neatly bright-golden-toned, larger-sized- and/or early-pattern) '3'- and/or '7'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') period-attached. Both devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny!) age-patina. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that this pair came with a (silverish-coloured) so-called: 'screw-on'-button (ie. 'Schraubknopf') attached. Simply an attractive shoulderboard that belonged to a: 'Leutnant der Reserve des Infanterie-Regiments 37'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard as (dual)piped in the black-coloured branchcolour as was intended for a: \'Leutnant der Reserve eines Pionier-Kradschützen-Abteilungs\' The attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless truly scarcely seen! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard is (dual)piped in the neat black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured branchcolour and has the typical dove-grey-coloured 'underlay' and was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - a: 'Leutnant der Reserve eines Pionier-Kradschützen-Abteilungs' (or: reserve-lieutnant who served within an enigineers-related, motorcycle-unit) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used-, worn- and/or: carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard is a 'text-book'-example of the 'Heeres'-type, 'Pioniere'-shoulderboard and shows the silver-coloured (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued'-pattern) 'upperdeck' (as can be noticed on the pictures). The board shows the desirable black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured branchcolour and has the typical dove-grey-coloured 'underlay' (and was constructed from the typical 'smooth'-type wool as to be expected). The board never had a tongue attached and was clearly used as a board of the 'sew-in-'type (as can be seen on the pictures). It measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length and was most certainly issued- and/or worn as such and does show some moderate age, wear and/or staining as to be expected. The board has a (neatly bright-golden-toned, smaller-sized- and/or Gothic-styled) 'K'-cypher (ie. Ziffer) period-attached (done BEFORE the board was totally assembled!). The device is just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but has preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny!) age-patina. Simply an attractive shoulderboard that belonged to a: 'Leutnant der Reserve eines Pionier-Kradschützen-Abteilungs'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard as piped in the bright-pink branchcolour as was intended for an: \'Oberstleutnant des Panzerjäger-Regiments 9\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard having the (bright!) pink-coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an: \'Oberstleutnant des Panzerjäger-Regiments 9\' (or: lieutnant colonel who served within the specific anti-tank- ie. tank-destroyer regiment, numbered: \'9\') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit I deem moderately used ie. worn- and/or I deem carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard which is approximately 11,6 cms. sized in length and that is piped in the neat bright-pink- (ie. \'rosaroter\'-) coloured branchcolour as to be expected shows a neat (bright golden-coloured, \'Buntmetall\'-based, Gothic-styled- and/or: larger-sized) so-called: \'P\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\'), \'9\'-numeral and equally-styled, single pip period-attached denoting that the strap was intended for a senior-officer who held the rank of: \'Oberstleutnant\' (ie. lieutnant-colonel). All three devices shows some regular age and/or minimal tarnish but are still nicely preserved. The strap never had a tongue attached (it is a specimen of the \'sew-in\'-type) and does show some minimal age-, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). It came with a silver-toned, pebbled-styled button attached. The piece was never before in collectors\'-hands and was recently found as such. Simply an attractive \'Heeres\' and high-ranked officers\'-type shoulderstrap that belonged to an: \'Oberstleutnant des Panzerjäger-Regiments 9\': too bad that it is only a single specimen!

The shoulderboard which is approximately 12,2 cms. sized in length and that is piped in the neat white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured branchcolour as to be expected shows a neat (bright golden-coloured, \'Buntmetall\'-based, Gothic-styled- and/or: larger-sized) so-called: \'W\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\') and equally-styled (Roman-type) \'VII\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\') period-attached denoting that the strap was intended for a junior-officer who held the rank of: \'Leutnant\'. Both devices shows some regular age and/or minimal tarnish. The board - that shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining - never had a tongue attached (it is a specimen of the \'sew-in\'-type as can be seen on the pictures).

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) neatly \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard as was intended for a: \'Hauptmann der Infanterie u. Mitglied einer Unteroffiziersschule\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - WH (Heeres) 'cyphered' officers'-type shoulderboard as piped in the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - a: 'Hauptmann der Infanterie u. Mitglied einer Unteroffiziersschule' (or: captain who served within one of the various army NCO-schools) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used-, worn- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard is a 'text-book'-example of the 'Heeres'-type-, 'Infanterie'-type shoulderboard and has the greyish-silver- (ie. somewhat sub-dued-) 'upperdeck'. The board show the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour (and was constructed from the 'smooth-type' wool as to be expected).

The board measures approximately 11 cms. in length and was clearly issued- and/or worn: it does show moderate age, wear and/or staining as to be expected. The board has a matching set of (neatly golden-toned, smaller-sized) Gothic-styled: 'US'-cypher and 2 identical golden-toned pips period-attached, denoting that the officer who wore these was a: 'Hauptmann' who served within one of the: 'Unteroffiziersschulen'. All three devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny) age-patina. The board - that was never before part of a collection and that was recently found - shows some minimal staining (and is a bit tarnished) of having been once tunic-attached. It should be mentioned that these neatly 'cyphered', 'Heeres'-type 'Unteroffiziersschule'-related-shoulderboards are actually quite hard to come by and can easily be graded 'scarce': simply a very attractive board that belonged to a: 'Hauptmann der Infanterie u. Mitglied einer Unteroffiziersschule'!

'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour and measures approximately 11 cms. in length and shows a single (golden-toned-, regular-sized and/or 'Buntmetall'-based-) pip, attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Oberleutnant' (as can be seen on the pictures). Next to this, the strap shows a (rare!) 'FL'-cypher (which is also executed in golden-toned 'Buntmetall'-based metal). The piece is fully 'text-book' in all facets and was IMO moderately used and/or worn; it was clearly used as a board of the 'sew-in'-type and was carefully tunic-removed (as can be seen on the pictures). The board shows no real defaults nor damage but does show age, wear and/or staining as mentioned above. Simply an attractive, 'Heeres'-related officers'-type shoulderboard that was intended for - and/or used by! - an: 'Oberleutnant eines Heeres-Flak-Batallion': too bad that it is only a single specimen!

This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard, as was piped in the neat darker-pinkish-red- (ie. 'Karmesinroter') branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or worn by! - an: 'Oberst der Generals-Stab' (or full colonel and/or general-staff officer), in overall nice (albeit moderately used ie. worn- and/or tunic-removed-) condition. The shoulderboard - which is piped in the neat darker-pinkish-red- (ie. 'Karmesinroter'-) coloured branchcolour was as such intended for an: 'Oberst der Generals-Stab' (or colonel in the general staff). The board has a truly silver-greyish- (ie. sub-dued-) silver-coloured 'upperdeck' and shows two, identical and/or neatly golden-coloured, pips attached. The board - which is sized: 11,4 cms. in length - comes withouth tongue: it was worn as a board of the 'sew-in'-type. The board shows some moderate wear and/or age and still shows the signs of having been once tunic-attached. Simply an attractive and desirable, 'high-ranked' WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard that is executed in one of the more scarcely encountered branchcolours of the: 'Deutsche Wehrmacht'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) officers\'-type, \'cyphered\' shoulderboard as was intended for an: \'Oberst des Gebirgs-Artillerie-Regiments 79\' This is a truly very attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless fairly rarely seen! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type, neatly 'cyphered' shoulderboard as piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberst des Gebirgs-Artillerie-Regiments 79' (or: full colonel who served ie. possibly commanded the mountain-troops, artillery regiment, numbered: '79') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly used and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard - which is piped in the neat bright-red (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour - is executed in the 'smooth-type' wool and comes without tongue as found: it was with certainly used as a board of the 'sew-in'-pattern. The board - which is approximately 11,4 cms. sized in length - has a typical greyish (ie. sub-dued) 'upperdeck' and shows the clear signs of having been used and/or once tunic-attached. As stated above, does the board show the (bright-golden-toned, larger-sized- and typical 'Buntmetall'-based) '7'- and/or '9'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') and two (equally-styled, larger-sized) pips period-attached denoting the (high!) rank of: 'Oberst' (ie. full colonel). Of interest is, moreover, the fact that both 'cyphers' were attached to the board before it was completely assembled. Simply a very attractive - and with certainty not easily encountered! - 'cyphered' officers'-type board that belonged to a (high-ranked!) officer who served within the: 'Gebirgs-Artillerie-Regiments 79'. Too bad that it is only a single specimen!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) officers\'-type, \'cyphered\' shoulderboard as was intended for usage by an: \'Oberleutnant der Infanterie\' who served within the famous \'GrossDeutschland\'-division This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless fairly scarcely seen! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type, 'cyphered' shoulderboard as piped in the white- (ie.

The neat shoulderboard - which is piped in the neat white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour - is executed in the 'smooth-type' wool and comes mounted onto its (neatly woven- and greyish-toned) tongue. The board - which is approximately 10,3 cms. sized in length - has a greyish (ie. truly sub-dued) 'upperdeck' and shows the clear signs (ie. rust-staining) of having been worn ie. having been once tunic-attached. As stated above, does the board show a magnetic, regular-sized and/or bright-golden-toned, so-called: 'GD'-cypher (and regular-sized- and/or golden-toned) pip period-attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Oberleutnant' (ie. lieutnant first-class). The neat 'cypher' misses (regrettably) one of its prongs but nevertheless retains a nice, bright-golden-toned- and minimally tarnished finish. Simply an attractive - and scarcely encountered! - 'cyphered' officers'-type shoulderboard that shows lots of character and that belonged to an officer who served within a famous WH 'elite'-regiment: too bad that it is only a single specimen!

The board - which is approximately 11,7 cms. sized in length - has a greyish (ie. truly sub-dued) 'upperdeck' and shows the obvious signs of having been worn ie. having been once tunic-attached. As stated above, does the board show a non-magnetic, regular-sized and/or bright-golden-toned, so-called: 'GD'-cypher (and regular-sized- and/or golden-toned) pip attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Oberleutnant' (ie. lieutnant first-class).

'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for - and just minimally worn by! - a: 'Soldat und Mitglied eines Panzerjäger-Abteilungs' (or: simple soldier who served within an anti-tank- ie. tank-destroyer unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem only minimally used ie. worn- and carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The neat strap - which has the 'standard'-pattern, darker-green-coloured and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' is textbook in all facets. It shows the neat bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured- and woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap which measures approximately 12,3 cms. in length and that comes of course in a very nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition, overall never had a tongue and was most certainly worn and used as a strap of the 'sew-in'-type. The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) so-called: 'P'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') which is executed in the bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured wool as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap shows - as stated above - only minimal usage ie. wear (some age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice occasion to acquire a very attractive and most certainly desirable EM-type, 'Panzer-Jäger'-related shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) \'cyphered\' M36- (ie. M40-) rounded-pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel eines Panzer- o.

Panzerjäger-Divisionsstab' (or: sergeant who served within the divisional headquarters of a tank- ie. anti-tank-division) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The strap - which measures 10,5 cms. in length - is fully 'text-book' in all facets and is executed in typical darker-green-coloured wool, having the neat bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured and/or 'silk'-like-type piping attached. The strap is not damaged but does show some honest - albeit fair - wear and/or age: some minimal staining and/or wear is noticable (esp. on the piping). The shoulderstrap shows the (standard-pattern-) bright-silver-coloured NCO-braid attached and has a (larger-sized- and/or 'Buntmetall'-based-), Gothic-styled: 'D'-cypher and (equally executed) pip period-attached, denoting that the strap was intended for an NCO with the rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie. sergeant). Both devices were (I deem) period-attached and do show some regular age and/or minimal tarnish (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive - and with certainty scarcely encountered! - neatly 'cyphered' shoulderstrap that belonged to a: 'Feldwebel eines Panzer- o. Panzerjäger-Divisionsstab'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) \'cyphered\' M36- (ie. rounded-) pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 41\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - early- (ie. pre-) war-period WH (Heeres) 'cyphered' M36- (ie. rounded-) pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap as piped in the bright-pink- (ie.

The strap - which measures 11,7 cms. in length - is fully 'text-book' in all facets and is executed in typical darker-green-coloured wool, having the neat bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured and/or 'woolen'-type piping attached. The strap is totally undamaged but does show some honest - albeit fair - wear and/or age: some minimal staining and/or wear is noticable. It shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei') stitched 'P'-cypher and '41'-numerals. All three 'cyphers' are executed in the bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected. The strap comes without tongue and was clearly used as a strap of the so-called: 'sew-in'-type: it has the more early-type, silver-coloured-, Heeres NCO-braid attached (something that is more often encountered with these early-type straps). Simply an attractive and with certainty scarcely encountered, 'cyphered' shoulderstrap that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 41'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) \'cyphered\' M36- (ie. rounded-) pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for an: \'Unteroffizier des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 9\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely seen! - early- (ie. pre-) war-period WH (Heeres) 'cyphered' M36- (ie. rounded-) pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap as piped in the bright-pink- (ie.

The strap - which measures 12 cms. in length - is fully 'text-book' in all facets and is executed in typical darker-green-coloured wool, having the neat bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured and/or 'rayon'-type piping attached. The strap - which is a typical example as was in my opinion used on the 'Waffenrock' (ie. dress-tunic) - is totally undamaged but does show some honest - albeit fair - wear and/or age: some minimal staining and/or wear is noticable. It shows the neat (hand-embroidered!) 'P'-cypher and '9'-numeral. Both 'cyphers' are executed in the bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected. The strap comes without tongue and was clearly used as a strap of the so-called: 'sew-in'-type: it has the more early-type, darker-silver-coloured-, Heeres NCO-braid attached (something that is more often encountered with these early-type straps). Simply an attractive and scarcely encountered, 'cyphered' 'Waffenrock'-shoulderstrap that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier des Panzerjäger-Abteilungs 9'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) \'cyphered\' officers\'-type shoulderboard as (dual!) piped in the golden-yellow- (ie. dove-grey-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for a: \'Major der Reserve des Kavallerie-Schützen-Regiments 3\' The attractive WH (Heeres) 'cyphered' officers'-type shoulderboard - which is truly a 'text-book'-specimen in all facets and that measures approximately 10 cms. in length - is 'dual-piped' in the (not that often seen!) golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelber'-) coloured branchcolour and that is showing a dove-grey-coloured 'underlay' and was as such intended for usage by a senior (reserve)-officer who served within a: 'Kavallerie- o. Schützen-Regiment' numbered: '3' and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. hardly used- albeit most certainly once tunic-attached-), condition. The board - which has a truly 'smooth-woolen'-based- (ie. 'moleskin'-like-) 'backing' - shows a neat (smaller-sized, bright golden-toned- and/or Gothic-styled) so-called: 'B'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') and equally styled: '3'-numeral period-attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Major der Reserve des Kavallerie-Schützen-Regiments 3'. All three devices show some minimal age ie. tarnish but still retain a nice 'frosted' and/or golden-toned finish. The board came mounted onto its (typical smaller-sized) officers'-type tongue attached and came with a (silver-toned and 'pebbled'-style) 'screw-on'-button (ie. 'Schraubknopf') attached. The piece comes in an overall nice and only minimally used- ie. worn condition. Simply a very attractive - and with certainty scarcely found! - shoulderboard that was intended for a: 'Major der Reserve des Kavallerie-Schützen-Regiments 3'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) \'cyphered\' officers\'-type shoulderboard as piped in the bright-green-coloured branchcolour as was intended for a: \'Leutnant eines Panzer-Grenadier-Lehr-Abteilungs o. Regiments\' The attractive - and neatly 'cyphered'! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard is piped in the neat desirable bright-green- (ie. 'hellgrüner'-) coloured branchcolour and was as such specifically intended for usage by a: 'Leutnant eines Panzer-Grenadier-Lehr-Abteilungs o. Regiments' (or: lieutnant who served within a within a later-war-period, infantry-related, training- ie. schooling rifle-regiment) and that comes in an overall nice- (I deem surely issued- and/or moderately worn-), condition. The attractive shoulderboard is a typical 'text-book'-example of the 'Heeres'-type, 'Panzergrenadiere'-related shoulderboard and has the silverish-grey-coloured (ie. somewhat sub-dued) 'upperdeck' (making this a board that was - I deem - specifically intended for usage on a 'front-used' tunic). The board shows the desirable bright-green- (ie. 'hellgrüner'-) coloured branchcolour (and was constructed from the 'smooth-type' wool as to be expected). The board comes mounted onto its (typical smaller-sized) tongue and came with a so-called: 'screw-on'-button (ie. 'Schraubknopf') attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The board measures approximately 10 cms. in length and shows a single (larger-sized, Gothic-styled- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based) so-called: 'L'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') period-attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Leutnant' (ie. lieutnant). The device is just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but has preserved a fine and fairly bright- (albeit minimally darkened) age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - that originated from a smaller collection of single, 'cyphered' boards I recently acquired for the web-site - is truly void of any real age, wear nor staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive, neatly 'cyphered' WH (Heeres) shoulderboard that belonged to a: 'Leutnant eines Panzer-Grenadier-Lehr-Abteilungs o. Regiments'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) \'cyphered\' officers\'-type shoulderboard as piped in the darker-green- (ie. \'grüner\'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for an: \'Oberleutnant des Gebirgsjäger-Regiments 85\' The attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - shoulderboard is a typical, 'text-book'-example of the Heeres-pattern, officers'-type shoulderboard and has the silverish- (ie. somewhat 'shiny'-type-) 'upperdeck': it was with certainty issued and worn as such and does show some moderate age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The board shows the desirable darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour (and was constructed from the 'smooth-type' wool as to be expected). The board never had a tongue attached and was with certainty intended and worn as a board of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). The board measures approximately 11 cms. in length and shows a set of (neatly darker golden-bronze-toned- and regular-sized) '8'- and '5'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') and a single (regular-sized- and bright-golden-toned) pip period-attached. All three devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny) age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that both cyphers ('Ziffern') were attached onto the board BEFORE the piece was fully assembled . Simply an attractive WH (Heeres) shoulderboard that belonged an: 'Oberleutnant des Gebirgsjäger-Regiments 85' (part of the '5.Gebirgs-Division'): too bad that it is only a single specimen!

The board shows the desirable darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour (and was constructed from the 'smooth-type' wool as to be expected). The board never had a tongue attached and was with certainty intended and worn as a board of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). The board measures approximately 11,7 cms. in length and shows a single (regular-sized- and bright-golden-toned) pip period-attached. The pip just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny) age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures).

The attractive shoulderboard is a typical 'text-book'-example of the 'Heeres'-type, 'Kavallerie o.

The board comes mounted onto its (typical smaller-sized) tongue and came with a so-called: 'screw-on'-button (ie. 'Schraubknopf') attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The board measures approximately 10 cms. in length and shows a single (larger-sized, Gothic-styled- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based) so-called: 'A'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') and an equally golden-toned (smaller-sized- and/or also 'Buntmetall'-based) '3'-numeral period-attached denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Leutnant' (ie. lieutnant). Both devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (albeit minimally darkened) age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - that originated from a smaller collection of single, 'cyphered' boards I recently acquired for the web-site - is truly void of any real age, wear nor staining (as can be seen on the pictures). These 'standard'-pattern, officers'-type shoulderboards could be used with the regular-style officers-tunics but could naturally also be worn on the specific black-woolen 'Panzer'-type 'wrap-around'-tunics. Simply an attractive, neatly 'cyphered' WH (Heeres) shoulderboard that belonged to a: 'Leutnant des Panzer-Aufklärungs-Abteilungs 3'!

The board - which is executed in the \'smooth\'-like- and/or beige-white-coloured wool (aka \'moleskin\') - measures approximately 10,5 cms. in length and has a fairly \'sub-dued\'- ie. silver-grey-coloured \'upperdeck\' (that shows moderate age and/or wear). The board has a (typical smaller-sized) tongue attached and came with a pebbled-style button attached as found. The board shows a (golden-toned, Gothic-styled, smaller-sized and/or: \'Buntmetall\'-based) so-called: \'D\'-cypher and equally-styled \'1\'- and/or: \'0\'-cyphers (ie. \'Ziffern\' or numerals) and two neatly golden-toned (smaller-sized and \'Buntmetall\'-based) pips, period-attached: all five devices are minimally tarnished and/or stained but are still very nice and/or pronounced. This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site.

The strap shows the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) '16'-numerals (which are executed in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured wool as to be expected): moreover, does it show the silver-coloured- and/or early-pattern NCO-braid atttached, denoting the soldiers'-rank of: 'Unteroffizier'. The strap - which comes mounted on its functional tongue - shows as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. This particular example originated from a large cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. It should furthermore be noted that the: 'Infanterie-Regiment 16' is deemed of additional interest amongst many collectors: its troops were heavingly involved in the execution of 'Fall Gelb' (in which operation that took place in May 1940 the Netherlands were occupied by the Germans).

Spiess des Infanterie-Regiments 355' (or: senior-NCO ie. company-sergeant who served within the infantry regiment, numbered: '355') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn- and/or tunic-removed-), condition. The strap - which measures approximately 11,7 cms. in length - has the 'standard-pattern' and/or: field-grey-coloured-, woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the desirable 'silk-like'-type- and/or white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour ie. piping attached (see pictures). The shoulderstrap shows the (standard-pattern-) silver-coloured NCO-braid attached and has three (regular-sized- and/or aluminium-based-) pips period-attached, denoting that the pair was intended for an NCO with the unusually encountered rank of: 'Stabsfeldwebel' (ie. 'Spiess'). Next to this, the strap shows the (also aluminium-based- and/or early pattern '3'- and/or double '5'-numerals period-attached. All twelve devices were with certainty period-attached (in a somewhat sloppy manner!) and do show some regular age and/or tarnish. The strap comes mounted on its original tongue and does show some moderate age-, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive mid-war-period-, 'Heeres' NCO-type, 'Infanterie'-related shoulderstrap that belonged to a: 'Stabsfeldwebel o. Spiess des Infanterie-Regiments 355': too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), mid-war period-, \'M43\'-pattern-, NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for usage by a: \'Uffz. des Infanterie-Rgts. 9\' (showing an \'Übershube\' and \'Lasche\') This is a truly very attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), mid-war period-, 'M43'-pattern, NCO-type shoulderstrap having the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and/or clearly worn by! - an: 'Unteroffzier des Infanterie-Regiments 6' (or: junior-sergeant who served within the infantry regiment, numbered: '9') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn- and/or tunic-removed-), condition. The strap - which measures approximately 11,2 cms. in length - has the 'standard-pattern' and/or: field-grey-coloured-, woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the desirable 'silk-like'-type- and/or white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour ie. piping attached (see pictures). The shoulderstrap shows the (standard-pattern-) silver-coloured NCO-braid attached and has moreover a neat so-called: 'Übershube' (showing the machine-stitched '9'-numeral-) and bright-green- (ie. 'wiesengrüner'-) coloured regimental-indicator 'Lasche' period-attached, denoting that the strap was intended for an NCO with the rank of 'Unteroffzier'. The strap comes mounted on its original tongue and does show some moderate age-, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very interesting, mid-war-period-, 'Heeres' NCO-type, 'Infanterie'-related shoulderstrap that belonged to an: 'Unteroffzier des Infanterie-Regiments 6': too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), officers\'-type shoulderboard, as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - an: \'Oberst eines Panzer-Grenadiere-Regiments\' This is an attractive - and in this particular branchcolour scarcely encountered, albeit regrettably single - WH (Heeres) officers'-type shoulderboard, as piped in the neat bright-green- (ie. 'wiesengrüner'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and worn by! - an: 'Oberst eines Panzer-Grenadiere-Regiments' (or full colonel that served within or even commanded a rifle-regiment), that comes in an overall nice (albeit used ie. tunic-removed-), condition. The neat shoulderboard - which is constructed from the bright-green- (ie. 'wiesengrüner'-) coloured- and 'smooth-type'- (ie. moleskin-like-) wool - is in an excellent condition overall but shows the clear signs of having been worn and/or moderately used. The fairly 'dull'- ie. sub-dued appearance of the 'upperdeck' is fully present and/or preserved, making this IMO a board that was probably intended for usage on a 'regular' front-used tunic. The board is just a bit 'tarnished' by normal age and/or minimal wear. The board - which measures approximately 10,8 cms. in length - shows two (golden-toned albeit tarnished- and/or fully matching-) pips attached. The board never had a tongue: it is of the 'sew-in'-type and was IMO carefully tunic-removed. This interesting shoulderboard was recently found at a private household in Germany and was never before in a collection: it belonged to an: 'Oberst eines Panzer-Grenadiere-Regiments' (who most certainly shortly wore and stored it for decades). Simply a very attractive and fairly high-ranked 'Heeres', officers’-type shoulderboard in a hard to encounter 'Waffenfarbe': too bad it is only a single piece!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), \'cyphered\', officers\'-type shoulderboard as was intended for usage by an: \'Oberleutnant u. Mitglied des Eisenbahn-Pioniere-Abteilungs 4\' This is an attractive - and as such actually scarcely encountered albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard as piped in the neat black- (ie. 'schwarzer'-) coloured branchcolour, as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberleutnant u. Mitglied des Eisenbahn-Pioniere-Abteilungs 4' (or: lieutnant first-class who served within an armoured-trains-related, engineers' unit ie. regiment numbered: '4') and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem issued albeit hardly used- ie. minimally worn-), condition. The board - which measures approximately 11,7 cms. in length and has a somewhat 'shiny' silver-coloured 'upperdeck' - shows some minor wear, age and/or minimal staining. The board comes without tongue and was with certainty issued- (and used) as a board of 'sew-in'-pattern. The board shows the neat (Gothic-styled, regular-sized, bright-golden-toned and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based) so-called: 'E'-'cypher' and equally styled '4'-numeral and single pip period-attached. All three devices are - I deem - executed in 'Buntmetall'-based-metal and show some minimal age ie. tarnish: they have, however, maintained an attractive and truly 'frosted' appearance. Simply a very attractive - and most certainly desirable! - 'cyphered', 'Eisenbahnpioniere-Regiment'-related officers'-type shoulderboard: too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Kriegsmarine ie. \'Marine-Beamten-related-), neatly \'cyphered\'-, officers\'-type shoulderboard, as was intended for an administrative-officer with the rank of: \'Kapitänleutnant\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but still fairly scarcely encountered! - WH (Kriegsmarine ie. 'Marine-Beamten-related-), beige-white-coloured- and neatly 'cyphered'-, officers'-type shoulderboard, that comes mounted on its so-called: 'Auf der Steg'-mounting, as was intended for - and worn by! - an administrative-officer with the rank of: 'Kapitänleutnant', in overall very nice (ie. slightly used and/or IMO tunic-removed-) condition. The neat shoulderboard - which is constructed from the beige-white-coloured wool - shows an 'upperdeck' that is executed in silver-coloured thread (ie. 'braid'). It measures approximately 11,3 cms. in length and comes mounted on its unusually seen so-called: 'Auf der Steg'-mounting and was as such (IMO) intended for usage on a white-coloured, summer-type tunic. The board shows a (golden-toned-) eagle-device- and two (zinc-based and golden-toned-) pips attached, denoting the officers'-rank of: 'Kapitänleutnant'. The board has truly extraordinary detail and is a great example of the employed craftmenship of the days. It is a tiny bit tarnished ie. stained (simply caused by years of storage ie. moderate wear). The piece originates from a private household and was never before in a collection. Simply a very nice and/or truly detailed WH Kriegsmarine ie. 'Marine-Beamten-related-, officers'-type shoulderboard: too bad it is only a single example!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Luftwaffe ie. Hitlerjugend-) related- and unusally \'cyphered\', so-called: \'Flakhelfer\'-shoulderstrap as was intended a: \'Flakhelfer\' (ie. later-war-period, youthful, anti-aircraft staff-member) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single and just moderately used- and/or worn! - WH (Luftwaffe- ie. Hitlerjugend-) related- and unusally 'cyphered', so-called: 'Flakhelfer'-shoulderstrap as piped in the (typical) bright-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by a: 'Flakhelfer' (ie. later-war-period, youthfull anti-aircraft staff-member) and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. just moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The strap measures approximately 10 cms. in length (as more often) and has the black-coloured- and typical smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' (and has the 'silk-like'-type- and/or blue-coloured piping attached). The strap just shows some moderate wear and comes in an overall very nice- and/or fully undamaged, condition. The strap - that shows a smaller-sized, zinc-based '8'-cypher period-attached - shows the 'Luftwaffe'-type, bluish-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'backing' and came mounted onto its (smaller-shaped) tongue (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap came from a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply an attractive, later-war period- and youth-related 'Flakhelfer'-shoulderstrap that is actually not that often offered for sale: too bad that it is only a single specimen!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Luftwaffe) enlisted-mens\'-type shoulderstrap as executed in \'HBT\'-material and piped in golden-yellow, as worn by a: \'Soldat der Flieger o. Fallschirmtruppen\' - nice (albeit used- ie. worn-) condition! This is a very nice - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Luftwaffe) enlisted-mens’-type shoulderstrap as entirely executed in reed-green-coloured 'HBT'-material and which is piped in the golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) branchcolour, as was intended for ie. worn by a: 'Soldat der Flieger o. Fallschirmtruppen' (or soldier within the paratrooper- or pilot-troops), in overall nice albeit clearly used ie. worn-, condition. The strap is in all facets a 'text-book'-example and is in a nice condition overall: it was clearly worn and/or tunic-removed. The strap does not show any defaults whatsoever: just some truly minimal staining caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear is noticable and/or present. The strap measures approximately 10,5 cms. in length and comes naturally mounted on its functional tongue. The strap shows the neat golden-yellow coloured and/or desirable 'silk-like'-type piping and was (IMO) intended for usage on the 3/4-model, camouflaged 'Felddivisionen'-smocks. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a neat example of the rarely encountered 'Soldat der Flieger o. Fallschirmtruppen' shoulderstrap as executed in reed-green coloured 'HBT'-cloth: too bad it is only a single piece!

These neat rank-patches saw usage on the various LW-flight-overalls and/or even paratroopers'-jump-smocks. The patch on offer here - which is executed in beige-white-coloured, 'felt-like' wool as mounted on a greyish-blue-coloured and/or: 'smooth'-like woolen background - shows one white-coloured 'moustache' and was as such intended for a non-commissioned officer with the rank of: 'Unteroffizier' (ie. junior-sergeant). The patch shows only moderate aging and/or wear (it is just a tiny bit stained caused by fair wear and/or storage for decades). Simply a nice LW-rank-patch that does not come often for sale!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Luftwaffe) officers\'-type shoulderboard as (dual)piped in the bright-red-coloured branchcolour as was intended for an: \'Oberleutnant der Reserve eines Flak-Artillerie-Regiments\' The attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless not that easily found! - WH (Luftwaffe) officers\'-type shoulderboard is (dual)piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. \'hochroter\'-) coloured branchcolour and has the typical dove-grey-coloured \'underlay\' and was intended for - and/or with certainty worn by! - an: \'Oberleutnant der Reserve eines Flak-Artillerie-Regiments\' (or: reserve-lieutnant who served within an anti-aircraft-regiment ie. unit) and comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used-, worn- and/or: carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderboard is a \'text-book\'-example of a \'Luftwaffe\'-type, \'Flak-Artillerie\'-shoulderboard and shows the silver-coloured (ie. somewhat \'shiny\'-pattern) \'upperdeck\' (as can be noticed on the pictures). The board show the bright-red- (ie. \'hochroter\'-) coloured branchcolour and has the typical dove-grey-coloured \'underlay\' (and was constructed from the typical \'smooth\'-type wool as to be expected). The board never had a tongue attached and was clearly used as a board of the \'sew-in-\'type (as can be seen on the pictures). It measures approximately 11 cms. in length and was most certainly issued- and/or worn as such and does show some moderate age, wear and/or staining as to be expected. The board has a single (bright-golden-toned, larger-sized) pip period-attached (which device is just minimally stained- ie. tarnished). Simply an attractive shoulderboard that belonged to an: \'Oberleutnant der Reserve eines Flak-Artillerie-Regiments\'!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Luftwaffe) \'dual-piped\', officers\'-type collar-tab as was intended for usage by a: \'Leutnant der Reserve eines Flieger- o.

'Kragenspiegel für Offiziere der Luftwaffe') as was intended for usage by a: 'Leutnant der Reserve eines Flieger- o. Fallschirm-Regiments' (or: reserve-lieutnant who served within a pilot- or paratroopers-regiment) and that comes in a moderately used- (ie. worn- and/or most certainly once tunic-attached-), condition. The - neatly hand-embroidered! - tab is piped in the golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour and does moreover show a secondary, bright-blue- (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour attached: as such, it was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Leutnant der Reserve eines Flieger- o. Fallschirm-Regiments'. The neat piece is neatly 'backed' with a piece of white-coloured linnen and was carefully tunic-removed (as can be noticed from the pictures). It should, in any case, be noted that these attractive, dual-piped officers'-type insignia-pieces as intended for: 'Offiziere der Reserve eines Flieger- o. Fallschirmregiments' can easily be graded: 'fairly scarce' and are truly not that often offered for sale: too bad that it is only a single specimen!

The strap show the neat machine-embroidered: \'4\' numeral (ie. \'Ziffer\') which is executed in bright-red-coloured linnen ie. wool by means of so-called: \'Kürbelstickerei\' (as can be noticed on the pictures).

'Kragenspiegel für Mannschaften u. Unteroffizier der Luftwaffe') as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Hermann Göring Division' and that comes in an overall nice- (I deem isssued albeit never worn nor even tunic-attached-), condition.

The collar-tab is nicely executed in the so-called: 'BeVo-weave'-pattern and was period-folded- ie. confectioned: it does show a border of silverish-grey-coloured (ie.

It should be noted that these - original - 'official' collar-tabs executed in 'BeVo'-type weave (ie. German manufacture by the company of 'BeVo'!) are considered very scarce.

The (rounded-styled) strap has the typical darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and does show the neat darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured branchcolour and woolen-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstrap comes mounted onto its functional tongue attached and was with certainty a piece that was used onto a 'front-type'-tunic. Next to the (typical) siilverish-toned NCO-braid does the strap show the neat (and unsually seen!) '3'-numeral ie. 'Ziffer' (which is machine-embroidered in darker-blue wool or linnen by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' as to be expected). The strap - which measures approximately 12,3 cms. in length - was used by an: 'Unteroffizier' (ie. junior sergeant or medical orderly) who was (I deem) attached to the: 'Sanitäts-Abteilung 3' (being a specific army medical-unit). Simply, a neat pre- (ie. early-) war-period, 'cyphered' NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for an: 'Unteroffizier des Sanitäts-Abteilungs o. Regiments 3' and that is I deem with certainty accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - \'cyphered\' so-called: \'M40- ie. M43-pattern\', WH (Heeres) EM-type shoulderstrap as was intended for - and/or moderately worn by! - a: \'Soldat des Sanitäts-Abteilungs o. Regiments 11\' The truly attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - shoulderstrap is (I deem) of the early- ie. mid-war-period- (ie. 'M40- o. M43'-) pattern and does show only moderate age, wear and/or minimal staining. The strap has the field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdeck' and does show the neat darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured branchcolour and desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The shoulderstrap comes mounted onto its functional tongue attached and was with certainty a piece that was used onto a 'front-type'-tunic. It shows the neat (and unsually seen!) Roman-styled 'XI'-numeral (which is machine-embroidered in darker-blue wool or linnen by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei' as to be expected). The strap - which measures approximately 10 cms. in length - was used by a: 'Soldat' (ie. simple soldier or medical orderly) who was (I deem) attached to the: 'Sanitäts-Abteilung 11' (being a specific army medical-unit). Simply, a neat early- (ie. mid-) war-period, 'cyphered' EM-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: 'Soldat des Sanitäts-Abteilungs o. Regiments 11' and that is I deem with certainty accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - \'cyphered\' WH (Heeres) officers\'-type shoulderboard, as was intended for a: \'Leutnant des Infanterie-Regiments 451\' - overall nice (albeit IMO moderately used ie. tunic-removed-) condition! This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - \'cyphered\', WH (Heeres) officers\'-type shoulderboard, as was piped in the neat white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for - and with certainty worn by! - a: \'Leutnant des Infanterie-Regiments 451\' (or lieutnant who served within the infantry regiment, numbered: \'451\' ), in overall nice, albeit clearly used ie. worn and/or IMO tunic-removed, condition. The neat shoulderboard is constructed in the smooth-type (ie. \'moleskin\'-like) wool and is per regulation piped in the white- (ie. \'weisser\'-) coloured branchcolour. The board - which has a length of approximately 11 cms. - comes without tongue as found and/or worn and was thus a board that was worn as a so-called: \'sew-in\'-type example. The board has a truly \'silver-greyish\'-coloured (ie. somewhat \'sub-dued\'-) \'upperdeck\' (something that clearly identifies it as WH Heeres-type shoulder- board). The board shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by years of storage and/or minimal wear and/or usage: it is IMO most certainly worn and/or carefully tunic-removed (it comes with a pebbled-styled, button period-attached (sewn on by hand). The board - which originate from a private household and was never before in a collection - shows the(regular-sized-) golden-toned, \'4, \'5\' and \'1\'-numerals attached: all 3 devices show some minimal tarnish ie. wear. Simply an attractive infantry-related shoulderboard that belonged to a: \'Leutnant des Infanterie-Regiments 451\': too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - \'cyphered\' WH (Heeres), early-war period-, ie. \'M36\'-pattern- (rounded styled), NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel einer Nebelwerfer-Schule\' This is a truly attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless not that often seen - neatly 'cyphered' WH (Heeres), early-war period-, ie. 'M36'-pattern- (rounded styled), shoulderstrap having the neat darker-purple- (ie. 'bordeaux-roter'-) coloured branchcolour, as was intended for usage by a: 'Feldwebel einer Nebelwerfer-Schule' (or: sergeant who served within one of the army smoke-troop schools or training-institutes), that comes in an overall nice (and IMO only minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The neat strap - which is approximately 10,9 cms. sized in length - has the smooth-woolen (ie. 'moleskin'-) based and/or: darker-green-coloured-, woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the 'rayon'-type- and/or darker-purple- (ie. 'bordeaux-roter'-) coloured branchcolour ie. piping attached (see pictures). The shoulderstrap shows the (standard-pattern- ie. greyish-silver-coloured-) NCO-braid attached and shows a (regular-sized- and/or: zinc-based-) 'S'-cypher and pip period-attached, denoting that the strap was intended for an NCO with the rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie. sergeant). Both devices show some regular age and/or minimal tarnish. The strap comes mounted on its original (small-sized) tongue and does show some minimal age-, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap is - as stated above - entirely executed from the the smooth-woolen (ie. 'moleskin'-) based wool and is as such a strap that was with certainty privately acquired at a tailor-shop or alike. Simply a very attractive, IMO early- ie. mid-war-period-, 'Heeres' NCO-type, 'Nebelwerfer'-related shoulderstrap that belonged to a: 'Feldwebel einer Nebelwerfer-Schule': I deem that I have priced this attractive - and actually scarcely seen! - strap accordingly!

The neat shoulderboard is constructed in the smooth-type (ie. 'moleskin'-like-) wool and is per regulation piped in white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured wool. The board - which has a length of approximately 9,5 cms. - comes without tongue as found and/or worn and was thus a board that was worn as a so-called: 'sew-in'-type example. The board has a neat 'silver-greyish'-coloured (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued'-) 'upperdeck' (something that clearly identifies it as a WH Heeres-type shoulderboard). The board shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by years of storage and/or minimal wear and/or usage: it is IMO most certainly worn and/or carefully tunic-removed ie. cut-off a tunic. The board shows a neat (golden-bronze-toned-, smaller-sized- and/or Gothic-styled-) 'M'-cypher attached and shows an (equally golden-toned-) '6'-numeral period attached: both devices show some minimal tarnish ie. wear. Simply an attractive shoulderboard that belonged to a: 'Major des Maschinengewehr-Abteilungs 6': too bad that it is only a single example!

'moleskin'-like) wool and is per regulation piped in the (very!) bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour.

'Freiwilligen-Arbeitsdienst'-related-) officers'-pattern shoulderboard (ie. 'Schulterstück') as was intended for - and used by - a: 'FAD-Feldmeister' (ie. lieutnant first-class) and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. I deem moderately used- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which measures 12,7 cms. in length and which is of the type that was used on the various FAD-tunics around 1934/35 - does show some minimal and/or age but is void of any damage or alike: it is constructed from the (typical) black-coloured-, velvet-type wool and shows a silverish-black-striped 'upperdeck' having to horizontally mounted loops attached (all constructed from silverish/black-coloured braid as to be expected). The board comes without tongue and was with certainty intended to be used as a piece of the so-called: 'sew-in-type'. I came with a typical 'FAD'-type tunic-button attached. Simply an attractive, 'FAD'- (ie. 'Freiwilligen-Arbeitsdienst'-) related, officers'-pattern shoulderboard that was intended for - and used by - a: 'FAD-Feldmeister': too bad that it is only a single example!

'grüner'-) coloured and/or woolen-type piping ie. branchcolour, attached. The strap comes mounted on its functional tongue and was IMO moderately used and/or worn (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap has the 'standard'-pattern- and/or (bright-) silver-coloured NCO-braid attached and shows a Gothic-styled- (and/or regular-sized-, silver-coloured- and/or aluminium-based-) 'S'-cypher and dito pips attached denoting the NCOs'-rank ie. function of: 'Oberfeldwebel u. Mitglied einer Gebirgsjäger-Schule'. All three devices are minimally stained- ie. tarnished, simply caused by wear and/or decades of storage. The strap is just a tiny bit dirty ie. stained and shows evidence of having been used and/or worn. The piece - which is with certainty a 'standard-issued'- (and NOT a tailor-made-) strap - is simply hard to be upgraded. This particular shoulderstrap originated from a larger cloth- ie. insignia-collection I recently acquired. It should be noted that all enlisted-mens' (and/or NCO-type-) 'Gebirgsjäger'-related shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Simply a great piece: too bad that it is only a single example!

Attractive - albeit regrettably single! - \'Polizei\' (ie. police) general-officers\'-type shoulderboard, as was executed in golden-/silver toned \'braid\', as was intended for usage by a: \'Generalmajor der Polizei\' The truly attractive shoulderboard - which is constructed from the typical bright-green-coloured, 'smooth-type' (ie. moleskin-like-) wool and having the golden-/silver toned- so-called: braid-based upperdeck - comes in an excellent condition overall and is hard to be upgraded: the board was with certainty worn and came as recently found. The board is just a tiny bit 'tarnished' simply caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear and was with certainty once tunic-attached: it comes mounted on its thin-shaped (officers'-type) tongue. The neat shoulderboard - which measures approximately 10,4 cms. in length - never had any general-officers'-pip(s) attached denoting the rank of a: 'Generalmajor der Polizei' (see pictures). It should be noted that all (police) general-officers' shoulderboards can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Too bad that it is only a single example!

'Kragenspiegel für Offiziere der LW') as executed on a bright-pink-coloured background as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Flieger-Oberstabsingenieur' (being a rank similar to: 'Oberstleutnant' or: lieutnant-colonel) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used- and/or most certainly once tunic-attached-), condition. The tab is executed in the neat smooth-like- (ie. 'moleskin'-) type wool and has truly extraordinary detail: the shown craftmanship is very detailed and simply stunning. The backing is constructed of yellowish-beige-coloured, so-called 'buckram'-based cloth (as can be seen on the pictures). These 'pink-coloured' LW-tabs as were intended for staffmembers of the 'Ingenieurkorps der Luftwaffe' are quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Simply a very attractive high-ranked collar-tab that belonged to a: a: 'Flieger-Oberstabsingenieur': too bad that it is only a single specimen!

'Kunstseide') and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. never used- ie. 'virtually mint'-), condition. This piece - which is of the 'printed pattern' as executed in black on a bright-green-coloured and/or 'silk-like'-type, linnen-based background - shows shows a single oakleaf-bar and single square-sized bar signifying that this patch was intended for usage by an officer with the rank of: 'Leutnant' ie.: 'Waffen-SS Untersturmführer' (ie. lieutnant).

Gebirgsjäger-Regiments 13' (or: junior-sergeant and/or: sergeant-candidate who served within a mountain-troop-related unit- ie. regiment, numbered: '13'), in overall very nice (albeit IMO moderately used ie. worn-) condition. The neat strap - which has entirely been executed in darker-green-coloured and/or smooth-woolen-based wool and that is IMO a privately-purchased example - has the neat green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour- (and/or woolen-type-) piping attached (which is a tiny bit stained). The strap which measures approximately 10,7 cms. in length, comes mounted on its functional tongue and is as stated in a nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition overall. The strap shows the (shiny) silverish-coloured NCO-braid and a single (regular-sized-) pip attached and does show a double- and horizontally-mounted and/or: firmly affixed- and/or: yellowish-silver-coloured 'Lasche' (ie. rank slip-on) attached (see pictures). Moreover, does the strap show (zinc-based- and smaller-sized-) '1' and/or: '3' numerals attached (see pictures). The strap shows - as stated above - only moderate usage ie. wear (just some minimal age, dust and/or staining is visible and/or present: it also shows some glue-remains on its back, caused by having been glued into an album once - see pictures). This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. Simply an attractive WH (Heeres), IMO early-war period (ie. 'M36'-model- ie. rounded-pattern-) NCO-type shoulderstrap, as was intended for a: 'Unteroffizier u. Feldwebel-Anwärter des Jäger- o.

The board show a (neatly golden-toned, regular-sized- and/or: \'Buntmetall\'-based) \'4\'-numeral cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\') and an (equally-styled) pip period-attached, denoting that the officer was an: \'Oberleutnant\' or: lieutnant first-class. Both devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny) age-patina. The board shows some minimal age- ie. staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a neat Heeres-type officers\' shoulderboard that belonged to an: \'Oberleutnant des Artillerie-Regiments 4\'!

The collar-tab is constructed from the black-coloured- and/or 'smooth'-type wool and is 'piped' in the (typical) 'TeNo'-pattern, black- and silver-coloured braid (as can be seen on the pictures). The tab shows the typical- (brownish-yellow-coloured- and/or 'buckram'-based-) backing (that shows some moth-damage) and shows the: 'XIII - 14' so-called: 'TeNo'-numerals- ie. 'cyphers' (which are very nicely hand-enbroidered in silver-coloured 'braid' as can be seen on the pictures). These neat insignia-pieces were worn on the dark-blue-coloured- (officers'-) type 'TeNo' uniforms and/or tunics. This particular piece originates from a private household and was truly never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive - and most certainly desirable! - 'TeNo'-related insignia-piece: only the first such rare collar-tab I ever had on offer!
Attractive - albeit single but nevertheless rarely seen! - neatly \'cyphered\', WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel der Flak-Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Artillerieschule\' This is a truly attractive - albeit single but nevertheless rarely seen! - neatly 'cyphered', WH (Luftwaffe) NCO-type shoulderstrap as piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by a: 'Feldwebel der Flak-Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Artillerieschule' (or: sergeant and presumably instructor who served within an air-force-related, anti-aircraft school) and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. just moderately worn- and/or used-), condition. The neat shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 10,5 cms. in length and that comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongue - is as stated above piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour and has the desirable, 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap shows - next to the standard, LW-pattern NCO-braid - a neat (zinc- ie. 'Feinzink') based- and/or: 'Gothic'-styled) so-called: 'FAS'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') and single (equally-styled) pip period-attached denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie. sergeant). The strap shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining but is totally void of any real damage or alike. This strap originated from a small lot of 'cyphered' LW-straps and boards that I recently acquired for the web-site: it should, moreover, be noted that all 'cyphered' LW-straps are truly very hard to find. Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive - and rarely seen! - NCO-type, LW-shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Feldwebel der Flak-Artillerietruppen u. Mitglied einer Flak-Artillerieschule': too bad that it is only a single specimen!
Attractive - albeit single but nevertheless scarcely encountered - WH (Luftwaffe) 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard, as was intended for usage by a: 'Leutnant der Reserve u. Waffenoffizier' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard, as was (dual!) piped in the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour having a darker-blue secondary branchcolour, as was intended for a: 'Leutnant der Reserve u. Waffenoffizier' (or: reserve-lieutnant and/or member within one of the LW weapon-/armour-schools), that comes in an overall nice- (albeit IMO used- and/or carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The attractive shoulderboard - which is regular-sized and measures approximately: 10,7 cms. in length - is piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour and has a darker-blue secondary branchcolour (denoting: Reserve-status). The board has a truly 'shiny'- and/or silver-coloured- 'upperdeck' (as to be expected) and shows the neat bright golden-coloured-, IMO 'Buntmetall'-based- and/or Latin-styled so-called: 'W'-'cypher' period-attached (denoting the officers' status of: 'Luftwaffe Leutnant der Reserve u. Waffenoffizier'). The board - which comes mounted on its typical smaller-sized tongue - only shows minimal age and is a tiny bit stained ie. dirty (IMO caused by having been moderately worn and/or stored as such for decades). Simply an attractive shoulderboard that belonged to a: 'Leutnant der Reserve u. Waffenoffizier': ideal to store in any shoulderboard-collection. I deem that this attractive and/or neatly 'cyphered' 'Flak- artillerie'-related shoulderboard is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - Waffen-SS-type shoulderstrap as was intended for usage by an: \'SS-Unterscharführer\' (ie. junior-sergeant) who served within the: \'SS-Nachrichtentruppen\' The attractive - and actually carcely encountered albeit regrettably single - Waffen-SS-type shoulderstrap - which comes naturally mounted on its original, typical SS-shaped-, smaller-sized tongue as is more often encountered on genuine Waffen-SS shoulder- straps - has the bright-yellow (ie. 'zitronengelbener'-) coloured and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached, denoting that it was intended for usage by an: 'SS-Unterscharführer' (ie. junior-sergeant) who served within the: 'SS-Nachrichtentruppen' (or signal-troops). The back of the strap (which measures 11 cms. in length as is more often encountered) is executed in field-grey-coloured wool, as is more often observed with genuine Waffen-SS-type shoulderstraps. The piece shows some minimal age, wear and/or minimal staining as to be expected (see pictures). The strap shows the bluish-grey-coloured (ie. sub-dued-) NCO-braid attached, denoting the NCOs rank of: 'SS-Unterscharführer' (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply very attractive and of course 100% genuine, 'Waffen-SS Nachrichten-Truppen'-shoulderstrap: too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) officers\'-pattern (and neatly \'cyphered\'!) shoulderboard (ie. \'Schulterstück\') as was intended for usage by an: \'Oberleutnant u. Zahnarzt der Luftwaffe\' This an attractive - regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) officers\'-pattern (and neatly \'cyphered\'!) shoulderboard (ie. \'Schulterstück\') having the typical darker-blue- (ie. \'blauer\'-) coloured branchcolour and bright-silver-coloured \'upperdeck\' as was specifically intended for usage by an: \'Oberleutnant u. Zahnarzt der Luftwaffe\' (or: airforce dentist) and that comes in overall nice- (and most certainly used- ie. carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The neat board measures approximately 11,5 cms. in length and came without tongue: it was with certainty intended as (and worn) as a piece of the \'sew-in\'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). The board show a (neatly golden-toned, regular-sized- and/or: \'Buntmetall\'-based) so-called: \'Aesculapus\'- and/or: \'Z\'-cypher (ie. \'Ziffer\') and an (equally-styled) pip period-attached, denoting that the officer (ie. \'Oberleutnant\' or: lieutnant first-class) who was issued this board, served as an airforce dentist. All three devices are just minimally stained- ie. tarnished but have preserved a fine and fairly bright- (and/or quite shiny) age-patina. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that all three devices were attached BEFORE the board was fully assembled (as can be noticed on the pictures). The board - that has a very bright- and shiny \'upperdeck\' as to be expected - shows some minimal age- ie. staining (as can be seen on the pictures). These \'darker-blue-coloured\' LW-boards for \'Zahnärtze\' as specifically intended for staffmembers of the \'Luftwaffe\' are quite hard to encounter and can easily be graded \'scarce\'. Simply an attractive LW-type officers shoulderboard that belonged to an: \'Oberleutnant u. Zahnarzt der Luftwaffe\' and that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit single but scarcely seen! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'tropical-styled\', \'cyphered\' NCO-type shoulderstrap (as was intended for usage on the KM-tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was intended for a: \'Feldwebel einer Küsten-Art. Abts.\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless truly scarcely seen! - WH (Kriegsmarine) 'tropical-styled'- and neatly 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstrap (as was specifically intended for usage on the KM-tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was specially intended for usage by a naval-NCO holding the rank of a: 'Feldwebel einer Küsten-Artillerie-Abteilungs' (or: sergeant who served witin a naval, coastal-artillery unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally worn- ie. moderately used-), condition. The neat strap - which measures approximately 12 cms. in length and that has a width of 5,7 cms. as more often seen - was with certainty minimally used- and/or moderately worn. The strap - which is executed in the regular- (ie. slightly 'thicker'-styled- and/or typical tan-coloured) linnen - shows the (typical) darker-blue-coloured and linnen-based, tropical-naval-pattern NCO-braid attached and comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongue. Moreover, does it show a bright-golden-toned, so-called: anchor/winged-canon-'cypher' (ie. 'Ziffer') and a single (silver-toned- and regular-sized) pip period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Feldwebel' (ie: sergeant). The piece orginates from an older and larger collection of single shoulderstraps that was compiled over decades and that I recently acquired for the web-site. The neat strap shows some obvious age, wear and/or staining (it is, however, fully undamaged). It should be noted that these attractive KM tropical-styled, NCO-type shoulderstraps can easily be considered 'very scarce' and come hardly ever for sale: even more so when they come in such a neat and/or minimally used- ie. worn, condition. Too bad that it is only a single example!
Attractive - albeit single but scarcely seen! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'tropical-styled\', \'cyphered\' NCO-type shoulderstrap (as was specifically intended for usage on the KM-tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was intended for a: \'Stabsoberfeldwebel\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless truly scarcely seen! - WH (Kriegsmarine) 'tropical-styled'- and neatly 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstrap (as was specifically intended for usage on the KM-tropical-shirts ie. tunics) as was intended for a naval-NCO holding the (unusally observed!) rank of: 'Stabsoberfeldwebel' (or: senior-sergeant) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly worn- ie. moderately used-), condition. The neat strap - which measures approximately 11 cms. in length and that has a width of 5,5 cms. as more often seen - was with certainty used- and/or moderately worn. The strap - which is executed in the regular- (ie. slightly 'thicker'-styled- and/or typical tan-coloured) linnen - shows the (typical) darker-blue-coloured and linnen-based, tropical-naval-pattern NCO-braid attached and comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongue. Moreover, does it show a bright-golden-toned so-called: anchor/wheel-'cypher' (ie. 'Ziffer') and three (identical, regular-sized) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of a: 'Stabsoberfeldwebel' (or: senior-sergeant). The piece orginates from an older and larger collection of single shoulderstraps that was compiled over decades and that I recently acquired for the web-site. The neat strap - that came with a field-grey-coloured, pebbled-style button attached - shows some obvious age, wear and/or staining (it is, however, fully undamaged). It should be noted that these attractive KM tropical-styled, NCO-type shoulderstraps can easily be considered 'rare' and come hardly ever for sale: even more so when they come in such a neat and/or minimally used- ie. worn, condition.

Attractive - albeit single but still scarcely encountered! - specific \'cyphered\'-, EM-type shoulderboard, as was intended for a WH (Heeres) \'Feldpost-Lagermeister\' (being of a rank comparable with a soldiers\'-rank) This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely encountered! - specific 'cyphered'-, enlisted-mens'-type shoulderboard, as was intended for a WH (Heeres) 'Feldpost-Lagermeister' (being of a rank comparable with a soldiers'-rank) and that comes in an overall very nice (albeit IMO sligthty worn- ie.

'zitronengelber'- coloured-) branchcolour (ie. 'Zwischenfarbe') and darker-green-coloured 'upperdeck' showing (interwoven) yellow-coloured braid something that was obligatory for all shoulderboards as worn and/or used by the 'Feldpost'-service officials. The board measures approximately 11,3 cms. in length and never had a tongue attached and was surely intended for usage as a piece of the 'sew-in'-type (as can be seen on the pictures). The board shows a (regular-sized-, silver-toned- and aluminium-based-): 'FP'-cypher (period-) attached. This device is somewhat tarnished and/or stained but which is still very nice and/or pronounced (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that the device was attached BEFORE the board was totally assembled (something that can be seen on the pictures). The board was only minimally used and does show some (truly minor) staining ie. wear. This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired. Simply an attractive - and truly rarely seen! - EM-type, 'cyphered' shoulderboard that belonged to a: WH (Heeres) 'Feldpost-Lagermeister': too bad it is only a single piece!

'Zwischenfarbe') and typical silver-greyish-coloured 'upperdeck' showing an (interwoven) light-blue-coloured stripe something that was obligatory for all shoulderboards as worn and/or used by the various 'Geheime Feldpolizei'-officials. The board measures approximately 10,2 cms. in length and never had a tongue attached and was surely intended for usage as a piece of the 'sew-in'-type (as can be seen on the pictures). The board shows a (regular-sized-, silver-toned- and aluminium-based-): 'GFP'-cypher (period-) attached. This device is minimally tarnished and/or stained but which is still very nice and/or pronounced (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that the device was attached BEFORE the board was totally assembled (something that can be seen on the pictures).

These devices are minimally tarnished and/or stained but retain still very nice and/or pronounced detail (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that these devices were attached BEFORE the board was totally assembled (something that can be seen on the pictures).

'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour and/or: woolen-type piping attached. The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 11,6 cms. in length - comes mounted onto its functional tongue and shows a (larger-sized-, silverish-toned- and/or aluminium-based) so-called: 'P'-cypher and equally stypled pip period-attached denoting that it was a strap that was used by a: 'Feldwebel eines Panzerjäger-Abteilungs- o.

The strap measures approximately 10,3 cms. in length and never had a tongue attached: it was clearly used as a strap of the 'sew-in'-pattern and comes in a very nice- (ie. fully 'text-book') condition, overall. The strap shows the neat Gothic-styled (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) so-called: 'L'-cypher which is executed in the light-blue coloured wool or linnen as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures).

The strap measures approximately 12,2 cms. in length and comes without tongue attached: it was most certainly used as a strap of the 'sew-in'-pattern. The strap shows the neat hand-embroidered (!) double '6'-numerals (ie. 'Ziffern') which are executed in the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured linnen as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap - which is I deem of the 'privately-purchased'-pattern - shows as stated above only moderate usage and wear (just some minimal age, dust and/or staining (and a tiny moth-hole) is visible and/or present).

Attractive - albeit single! - officers\'-pattern shoulderboard (ie. \'Schulterstück\') as was specifically intended for usage by a Russian volunteer holding the rank of: \'Leutnant\' The attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless scarcely found! - specific officers'-pattern shoulderboard (ie. 'Schulterstück für Offiziere der Ostvölker') as was specifically intended for usage by a Russian volunteer holding the junior-officers'-rank of: 'Leutnant' (ie. lieutnant) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit presumably worn- and/or: carefully tunic-removed-), condition. This particular example is neatly constructed from bright-red-coloured linnen and shows the dual, golden-toned braid attached: it and comes as being moderatelty worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed condition (as can be seen of the pictures). The piece - which is quite broad-shaped and measures approximately 13,8 cms. in length - comes mounted onto its period, bright-blue-coloured tongue as issued- and worn. These shoulderboards were worn by the various 'Offiziere der Ostvölker' (such as those serving within the: 'Russian Liberation Army' or 'POA' ie. Cyrilic for 'ROA') and can easily be considered 'scarce' and come not often for sale. Too bad that it is only a single piece but I deem that I have, nevertheless, priced this attractive example accordingly!
Attractive - albeit single! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, \'M36\'/\'M40\'-type (rounded-styled) \'cyphered\' NCO-type shoulderstrap as was intended for a: \'Stabsfeldwebel u. Mitglied eines Unteroffiziersschule der Artillerie-Truppen\' This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, 'M36'/'M40'-type (rounded-styled) 'cyphered' NCO-type shoulderstrap as piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for - and with certainty worn by! - a: 'Stabsfeldwebel o. Spiess u. Mitglied eines Unteroffiziersschule der Artillerie-Truppen' (or: company-sergeant and possibly trainer who served within one of the artillery-related, army NCO-schools- ie. institutes) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which measures approximately 11,6 cms. sized in length - has the 'standard-type'- and/or darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdeck' and has the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured- and/or woolen-type piping attached. The strap - which comes mounted onto its functional tongue - shows as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). The strap has the 'standard-issue'-pattern, bright-silver-coloured type NCO-braid, a neat (silverish-toned- and 'Buntmetall'-based) so-called: 'US'-cypher (ie. 'Ziffer') and three (smaller-sized- and also 'Buntmetall'-based) pips period-attached, denoting the (unusally seen!) NCOs rank of: 'Stabsfeldwebel o. Spiess' (or company sergeant). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce': those attributed to the: 'Heeres-Unteroffiziersschulen' even more so. This particular example originated from a larger cloth-/shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. In any case an attractive and/or early-war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related shoulderstrap that was intended for a: 'Stabsfeldwebel u. Mitglied eines Unteroffiziersschule der Artillerie-Truppen'!
Attractive - albeit somewhat damaged and repaired - WH cuff-title (ie. \'Ärmelstreifen\') entitled: \'Afrika\' (being a full-length example that comes in an overall nice- ie. - I deem - issued albeit never worn nor once tunic-attached, condition) The attractive - albeit somewhat damaged and repaired - cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') comes in a full-length condition: it measures approximately 44 cms. and was presumably issued albeit never worn: it was never stitched-together nor tunic-mounted (as can be noticed on the pictures). Both ends show some normal fraying as is more often encountered. The armband shows some obvious age and staining and regrettably does show some damaged areas (of which a tear was presumably 'glued-together' as can be seen on the pictures). The cuff-title is executed in the (typical) neat (ie. 'smooth-type'-) beige-brownish-coloured, so-called: 'Kamelhaar' (camel hair) as is more often encountered. It should be stated that these 'Afrika'-cuff-titles are not to be regarded as commemorative cuff-titles (such as the 'Afrikakorps' cuff-title) but were regarded as official awards that needed official recognition (and entries in both 'Soldbuch' and/or: 'Wehrpass'). The attractive piece was recently uncovered in Germany. Neverthelss, still an attractive example that I have naturally priced according to its repaired- ie. somewhat relic-condition: a pristine example would naturally fetch much more than my asking-price!
Attractive - albeit somewhat damaged! - example of an - I deem - mid-war-pattern, \'Waffen-SS\' so-called: \'RzM-style\'-collar-tab (being a so-called: \'pumpkin-head-variant\') as was intended for usage within the: \'3. SS-Panzer-Division\' “Totenkopf” This is an attractive - albeit somewhat moth-damaged! - example of an (I deem) early- (ie. mid-) war-pattern, 'Waffen-SS' so-called: 'RzM-style'-collar-tab depicting the horizontally mounted deaths-head ie. skull (being of the so-called: 'pumpkin-head-variant') as was intended for usage by the troops serving within the: '3. SS-Panzer-Division' “Totenkopf” and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. presumably never worn- nor tunic-attached-), condition. The neat piece was - I deem - never tunic-attached and shows a 'standard-pattern'- and/or yellowish-beige-coloured (ie. 'buckram'-based-) 'backing' (as can be seen on the pictures). The tab - which is executed in the fairly 'smooth-type'- (ie. so-called 'moleskin'-type) wool shows some moderate age ie. staining simply caused by decades of storage only: moreover, does it show some moth-damage (as can clearly be noticed on the pictures). Moreover, does it still shows the traces of a most certainly once-attached RzM-etiket. The collar-tab originates from an insignia-lot that was brought to the USA by an US veteran and that remained there for years in a US-based collection. Nevertheless, is this still a neat and 100% guaranteed original TK-tab of the so-called: 'pumpkin-head-variant'-pattern that is accordingly priced: a pristine example would fetch much more!
Attractive - albeit somewhat stained - WH (Heeres- ie. Waffen-SS) so-called: \'Kraftfahrbewährungs-Abzeichen in Bronze\' (or: drivers\' proficiency-badge in bronze) being an example that comes mounted on its piece of field-grey wool as issued The attractive - and most certainly very detailed! - arm-badge retains both its original prongs and also retains its period metal-based 'back-plate' as is more often encountered: it was never cleaned and is still a tiny bit stained ie. dirty caused by decades of storage only. As stated above was this nicely pronounced badge issued but never worn: it was never tunic-attached and still retains its neat, golden-bronze-coloured- (albeit somewhat tarnished) finish and also shows a fully preserved (beige-coloured-) 'backing-paper' as more often (see pictures): the piece came from a private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a nice example of a WH (Heeres- ie. Waffen-SS) so-called: 'Kraftfahrbewährungs-Abzeichen in Bronze'!
Attractive - albeit unmarked but with certainty rarely seen! - example of a pre-war-period-, so-called: FAD (ie. \'Freiwilligen Arbeitsdienst\') belt-buckle (ie.: \'Koppelschloss\') being a \'variant\'-pattern- (ie. \'two-pieced\'-) example This is a truly attractive - albeit unmarked but with certainty rarely seen! - example of a pre-war-period-, so-called: FAD (ie. 'Freiwilligen Arbeitsdienst') belt-buckle (ie.: 'Koppelschloss') being a 'variant'-pattern- (ie. 'two-pieced'-) example having a separate (and/or also copper- ie. 'messing'- based 'front-plate' attached) and that comes in an overall nice-, (albeit moderately worn- and/or totally uncleaned-), condition. The buckle - having a 'front-plate' that shows the FAD-characters with above the text: 'Für Volk u. Heimat' - is still a bit dirty and shows some dust and/or staining as acquired over the years. The buckle is of the 'variant'-pattern- (ie. 'two-pieced'-construction) and was (luckily) never cleaned nor polished. The piece - which is void of any makers'-mark or logo (as is more often encountered) - shows nice and/or pronounced detail but also shows the obvious signs of having been moderately worn (it is still a bit dusty as found and comes as stored for decades). As most likely known was the FAD (or: 'Freiwilligen Arbeitsdienst') the predecessor of the later founded RAD (or: 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'). Simply an attractive example of a (very early-pattern and rarely seen!) so-called: FAD (ie. 'Freiwilligen Arbeitsdienst') belt-buckle that is IMO accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit used- ie. worn! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen\' being a maker-marked example as executed in \'Buntmetall\' (ie. \'Tombak\') as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'GWL\' (ie. \'Gebr. Wegerhoff\') This is an attractive - albeit moderately used- ie. worn but still detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen' (or: destroyers'-war-badge) being a clearly maker-marked- (and/or: fairly 'high-quality'-produced!) example that is executed in multi-coloured, so-called: 'Buntmetall' and that comes in overall very nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The very detailed and/or pronounced badge retains most of its golden- (ie. silver-) toned finish and is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' (ie. 'Tombak'): it comes of course mounted onto its unaltered- and functional (flute-shaped and neatly horizontally-mounted) pin and/or catch. The with certainty 'high-quality'-produced badge (that also retains its often-missing so-called: 'Gegenhaken') shows on its back the makers'-designation: 'GWL' and was - I deem - never cleaned nor polished: it is just a tiny bit dusty ie. dirty as recently found (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Zerstörerkriegsabzeichen' as produced by the 'GWL'- (ie. 'Gebrüder Wegerhoff'-) are not that often appearing on todays market and can easily be graded 'scarce'. I deem that this moderately worn but still nicely preserved example is accordingly priced!
Attractive - albeit worn and incomplete! - WH (Kriegsmarine) \'U-Bootkriegsabzeichen\' being a non-maker-marked example as executed in golden-toned \'Buntmetall\' (ie. \'Tombak\') as was produced by the maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'Schwerin - Berlin\' The atractive - and typical \'Buntmetall\'- (ie. \'Tombak\'-) based - naval war-badge is as stated above a non-maker-marked- and detailed example that comes in a surely issued- and/or worn (and regrettably incomplete!) albeit overall still nicely preserved, condition. It is, as such, a typical example that was (I deem) produced by the desirable maker (ie. \'Hersteller\'): \'Schwerin\' based in the town of Berlin. The piece has still an attractive age-patina and retains most of its period-applied golden-toned finish (it has, however, lost its off-factory \'hochpolierte Kanten\' ie. polished sides and was most certainly cleaned over the years as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows, however, still extraordinary detail and comes naturally mounted onto its functional (flute-shaped- and/or silver-toned-) pin but shows a regretabbly broken-of catch (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge has - I deem - not recently been cleaned nor polished and is still a tiny bit dirty ie. stained. Simply an attractive - and with certainty not that often seen! - \'U-Bootkriegsabzeichen\' by a desirable maker that was never before in collectors\'-hands and that is I deem priced according to its incomplete condition!
Attractive - albeit worn! - so-called: N.S.V. (ie. \'Nationalsocialistische Volkswohlfahrt\') membership-lapel-pin (ie. \'Brosche\') as executed in bronze-toned \'Feinzink\' as was specifically intended for: \'Staatlich geprüfte Kindergärtnerinnen\' This is an attractive - and actually not that often seen! - so-called: N.S.V. (ie. 'Nationalsocialistische Volkswohlfahrt') membership-lapel-pin (or: 'Brosche' ie. 'Mitgliedsabzeichen') being a non-maker-marked example as was executed in (darkened) bronze-toned zinc-based metal (ie. 'Feinzink') as was specifically intended for usage by: 'Staatlich geprüfte Kindergärtnerinnen' (or: by the state officially-approved childrens'-hosts) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly worn- and/or used-), condition. The neat badge - being a medium-sized- and rectanguar-shaped example that measures approximately 5 x 3,5 mm. - shows no real damage whatsoever and comes natually mounted onto its functional (presumably re-attached) pin- ie. pin-/catch-set-up (as can be seen on the pictures). It was never cleaned nor polished and is still a bit tarnished (ie. stained). A similar badge is also figured in the 'Heering-Hüsken'-lapel-pin catalogue wherein it is given a unique referenced-number (5625E) and that is given an estimated value of 150 Eu(!). Simply an attractive 'NSV Mitgliedsbrosche' that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Attractive - almost matching but still scarcely found! - pair of WH (Heeres) - I deem - mid-war-period- (ie. \'M43\'-pattern-) EM-type shoulderstraps as was intended for usage by a: \'Soldat der Panzer-Grenadier-Truppen\' This is an attractive - truly almost matching but nevertheless scarcely found! - pair of WH (Heeres) - I deem - mid-war-period- (ie. 'M43'-pattern-) enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was piped in the desirable bright-green- (ie. 'wiesengrüner'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Panzer-Grenadier-Truppen' (ie. simple soldier who served within an infantry-related, so-called: rifle-regiment ie. unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The truly attractive shoulderstraps - which measure 11,4 cms. sized in length each - have the typical field-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' and has the neat (and desirable!) bright-green- (ie. 'wiesengrüner'-) coloured- and/or 'silk-like'-type, piping, attached. The straps come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues and do show just minimal wear, usage and/or minimal age (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these 'M43'-pattern, enlisted-mens'-type, 'Pz-Gren.'-shoulderstraps are much harder to encounter that their simplified, 'M44'-pattern counterparts. Simply a very attractive - and truly scarcely found! - EM-type- and truly 'M43'-pattern, 'Panzergrenadiere'-shoulderstrap-pair that belonged to a: 'Soldat der Panzer-Grenadier-Truppen'!
Attractive - aluminium-based-, SA- (ie. \'Sturmabteilungen\'-) related \'tinnie\', being a maker- (ie. \'Mayer u. Wilhelm\'-) marked example depicting marching SA-troopers and text that reads: \'SA-Brigade 54 Marschiert! - Freiburg i. Br. 22.-23.-8-35\' The attractive - and actually most certainly rarely found! - badge (ie. 'tinnie' or: 'Veranstaltungsabzeichen') is executed in silver-toned-, aluminium-based metal and depicts three marching SA-troopers (with swastika-banner) and text that reads: 'SA-Brigade 54 Marschiert! - Freiburg i. Br. 22.-23. Aug. 1935' and that was as such intended for an SA-related event that took place in the year 1935. The badge - that shows some normal wear and/or moderate age - comes naturally mounted on its functional pin-/catch set-up and has IMO never been cleaned nor polished: it shows some minimal staining (as can be seen on the pictures) but is still very detailed and/or pronounced. The 'tinnie' retains most of its (fairly shiny-) silver-greyish-coloured finish. Simply a great occasion to acquire an attractive - and with certainty not that easily found! - SA-related so-called: 'Tagungs- o. Veranstaltungsabzeichen' that is offered for an interesting price!
Attractive - and matching! - pair of enlisted-mens\'-type, WH (Luftwaffe) \'tropical-issue\' shoulderstraps as was intended for usage by a: \'Soldat der Flieger- o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen\' This is an attractive - and/or matching! - pair of enlisted-mens\'-type, WH (Luftwaffe) \'tropical-issue\' shoulderstraps as piped in the neat golden-yellow- (ie. \'goldbelbener\'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by a: \'Soldat der Flieger- o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen\' (or: simple pilot- or paratrooper soldier) and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem \'virtually mint- ie. unissued\'- and/or simply never worn-) condition. The neat shoulderstraps - which are both approximately 10 cms. sized in length - just shows some minimal storage-aging and/or slight staining only and have - as stated above - the neat golden-yellow- (ie. \'gold- gelbener\'-) coloured branchcolour (ie. \'silk-like\'-type piping-) attached. The straps - which are both executed in the regular (albeit slightly \'thicker\'-styled linnen) comes naturally mounted onto their functional tongues. Of additional interest, is naturally the fact that this pair is matching in all facets: something that is most certainly not always the case with these WH (Luftwaffe) \'tropical-issue\' shoulderstraps. Simply a very nice and naturally 100% genuine, period pair: hard to find a nicer set for a more interesting price!
Attractive - and 17 mm. sized! - WH (KM) \'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände\' being a maker- (ie. \'L/21\'-) marked example as executed in multi-coloured, zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based metal This is an attractive - and only 17 mm. sized - so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände' being a maker- (ie. 'L/21'- or: 'Förster & Barth'-) marked example as executed in multi-coloured, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal that comes mounted onto its original, long-sized pin and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem only minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The piece is a very detailed example that retains a very nice and bright age-patina: most of its original silver and/or golden-toned finish is present and/or nicely preserved: the piece has just a tiny bit tarnished over the years but is totally void of any real damage. Although its truly smaller size it shows great pronounced detail and is in fact much rarer to encounter than its regular-sized counterparts (the photos do not do justice to this piece: in hands it is much nicer and/or detailed). The piece shows a clearly present makers'-designation that reads 'L/21' and is as such a quality item that was produced by the maker ie. 'Hersteller' named: 'Förster & Barth' as was based in town of Pforzheim. Simply an attractive - and unusally seen! - miniature-lapel-pin that is accordingly priced!
Attractive - and 17 mm. sized! - WH (KM) \'U-Bootkriegsabzeichen\' being a non-maker-marked example as executed in bright-golden-coloured - and I deem - zinc- (ie. \'Feinzink\'-) based metal This is an attractive - and only 17 mm. sized - so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'U-Bootkriegsabzeichen' (or: sub-marine war-badge) being a non-maker-marked example as executed in bright-golden-coloured, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal and that comes mounted onto its original, long-sized pin and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem only minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The piece is a very detailed example that retains a very nice and bright age-patina: most of its original golden-toned finish is present and/or nicely preserved (just on its back it misses some colour): the piece has just a tiny bit tarnished over the years but is totally void of any real damage. Although its truly smaller size it shows great pronounced detail and is in fact much rarer to encounter than its regular-sized counterparts (the photos do not do justice to this piece: in hands it is much nicer and/or detailed). The piece is totally void of a makers'-designation as more often. Simply an attractive - and unusally seen! - miniature-sized KM-lapel-pin that is accordingly priced!

'Halbminiatur') depicting a: 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Gold' (or: golden-class wound-badge) being a neatly maker- (ie. 'L/21'-) marked example as executed in bright golden-coloured metal and that comes mounted onto its original, long-sized pin and that comes in an overall nice- (I deem moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The piece is a truly detailed example that retains a very nice and just moderately tarnished age-patina: most of its original golden-toned finish is present and/or nicely preserved: the piece has just a tiny bit tarnished over the years but is totally void of any real damage. Although its truly smaler size it shows great pronounced detail and is in fact rarer to encounter than its regular sized counterparts (the photos do not do justice to this piece: in hands it is much nicer and/or detailed). Simply an attractive - and scarcely found! - miniature 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Gold'-lapel-pin as was produced by the desirable maker- (ie.
