Pair of WH (Heeres) EM-type (ie. 'M36-/M40'-pattern- and 'pointed styled-') 'cyphered' shoulderstraps as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat des Jäger-Rgts. 75'
This is a very attractive - fully matching and actually truly very scarcely found! - pair of WH (Heeres) early-war-period, so-called: 'M36-/M40'-pattern- (pointed-styled) 'cyphered', enlisted-mens'-type (and as per regulation, non-piped!) shoulderstraps as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - a: 'Soldat des Jäger-Regiments 75' (or: simple soldier who served within the army mountain-troops regiment, numbered: '75') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used ie. clearly worn-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which are approximately 11,5 cms. sized in length - have the 'standard-type'- and/or darker-green-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdecks' and show the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei') so-called: '7'- and/or: '5'-cyphers ie. numerals (or: 'Ziffern'). Both 'cyphers' are executed in the darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which came mounted onto their functional tongues - show as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). I deem, moreover, that this pair was once used by an NCO ie. 'Unteroffizier': the silverish-toned NCO-braid was very carefully removed for or unclear reasons leaving almost no traces (as can be noticed on the pictures). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern, WH (Heeres) shoulderstraps can easily be regarded 'fairly scarce'. This shoulderstrap-pair originates from an older shoulderstrap ie. board-collection that I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply an attractive and/or: early-war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related EM-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat des Jäger-Regiments 75'!
