Superb - and/or fully matching! - pair of early-period- (ie. 'Reichswehr'-era) WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstraps as executed in neat 'rib-cord'-like linnen as was intended for an: 'Unteroffizier des Artillerie-Regiments 53'

This is truly superb - and/or fully matching! - pair of very early (ie. 'Reichswehr'-era) WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstraps having the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured and/or typical 'woolen'-type piping attached and which are executed in neat field-grey-coloured- and/or: 'rib-cord'-like linnen, as was intended for - and with certainty used by! - an: 'Unteroffizier des Artillerie-Regiments 53' (or: junior-sergeant who served within the artillery-regiment numbered: '53') and that comes in an overalll very nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The straps - which measure 11,6 cms. in length each - are fully 'text-book' in all facets and are executed in ('Reichwehr'-era type-) HBT-like (ie. 'rib-cord'-like-) linnen, having the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured and/or 'woolen'-type piping attached. Both straps are totally undamaged but do show some honest - albeit fair - wear and/or age: some minimal staining and/or wear is noticable. Both shoulderstraps show the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei') '53' numerals ie. 'cyphers' (which are executed in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected). The straps come mounted onto their functional tongues and have the more early-type, silver-coloured, Heeres NCO-braid attached (something that is more often encountered with these early-type straps). Simply a truly awesome - and with certainty rarely encountered! - 'cyphered' shoulderstrap-pair that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier des Artillerie-Regiments 53': one of the first such rare shoulderstrap-pairs I ever had on offer!
