Fully matching pair of enlisted-mens'-type, so-called: 'Ostvölker' (ie. Luftwaffe-related?) 'pointed-style' shoulderstraps

The pair is constructed from typical, bluish-grey-coloured WH(Luftwaffe)-type wool and comes without any branchcolour (ie. is void of any piping - see pictures). The pointed-style straps (something that denotes their 'Russian origin') both measure 11 cms. in length and are fairly wide-shaped as to be expected: they are in a virtually mint-/unissued condition. The pair is neatlty backed with greyish-coloured linnen. The set was with certainty intended for usage by one of the foreign volunteer- (ie. 'Ostvölker'- ie. Russian-based-) regiments or units. To date the exact usage or signifigance of these shoulderstraps could not yet be identified. These neat pairs of 'Ostvölker'-related shoulderstraps can easily be graded 'very scarce'.
