Pair of WH (Heeres), 'M40 o. M43'-pattern NCO-type shoulderstrap: 'Oberfeldwebel u. Offz.-Anwärter u. Mitglied einer Inf.-Uffz.-Schule'

This is an attractive - fully matching and with certainty scarcely encountered! - WH (Heeres), early- (ie. mid-war-) period- (ie. 'M40 o. M43'-pattern) and neatly 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstraps as was piped in the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for - and with certainty worn by! - an: 'Oberfeldwebel u. Offz.-Anwärter u. Mitglied einer Infanterie-Unteroffizierschule' (or: sergeant first-class and officers'-candidate and presumably instructor or trainer who served within one of the army-infanterie NCO-schools) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The (typical 'standard-issued'-pattern) shoulderstraps measure approximately 12,4 cms. in length each and have the 'standard-type'- and/or: field-grey-coloured, woolen-based 'upperdecks' and do show the white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured and desirable 'silk-like'-type piping ie. branchcolour attached (as can be see pictures). The straps - which come mounted onto their functional tongues - show as stated above only moderate usage and/or wear (some minor wear, staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). The straps - that came with a pair of field-grey-toned 'Schraubknöpfe' attached - show the ('standard-issue'-pattern) silver-coloured, NCO-braid attached and show a neat pair of (matching, silver-toned, larger-sized, Gothic-styled and/or: aluminium-based) so-called: 'US'-cyphers (ie. 'Ziffern') and four (matching, identically-styled and regular-sized) pips, period-attached denoting the NCOs-rank of an: 'Oberfeldwebel u. Mitglied einer Infanterie-Unteroffizierschule'. Next to these cyphers do the straps show a (dual) braid-based loop (ie. 'Lasche') each firmly-attached denoting that the NCO who wore this pair was also an: 'Offiziers-Anwärter' (or: officers'-candidate). This particular shoulderstrao-pair originated from an older cloth- and/or shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. In any case is this a truly attractive and/or: early-war-period, 'Heeres-Infanterie'-related NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by an: 'Oberfeldwebel u. Offz.-Anwärter u. Mitglied einer Infanterie-Unteroffizierschule' and that is with certainty accordingly priced!
