Single - but neverthless scarcely seen! - WH (Heeres) EM-type (ie. 'M36-/M40-pattern, rounded-style) 'cyphered' shoulderstrap as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Soldat u. Mitglied einer (Artillerie) Waffenschule'

This is an attractive - albeit regrettably single but nevertheless truly scarcely found! - WH (Heeres) early-war-period, so-called: 'M36-/M40'-pattern (and rounded-style) 'cyphered', enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstrap having the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and clearly worn by! - a: 'Soldat u. Mitglied einer (Artillerie) Waffenschule' (or: simple artillery soldier who served within one of the army weapon-schools) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn- ie. I deem clearly tunic-removed-), condition. The shoulderstrap - which is approximately 12 cms. sized in length as to be expected - has the 'standard-type'- and/or darker-green-coloured, (smooth)woolen-based 'upperdeck' and shows the neat Gothic-styled so-called: 'W'- and/or 'S'-cyphers (or: 'Ziffern') which are neatly executed in so-called: 'Handstickerei'). Both 'cyphers' are executed in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured wool ie. linnen as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The strap - which came without tongue and that was clearly intended for usage as a strap of the 'sew-in'-pattern - shows as stated above some moderate usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). I deem that this strap is a typical example of a so-called: 'tailor-made'-strap. It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern, WH (Heeres) shoulderstraps can easily be regarded 'fairly scarce'. This strap 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 that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat u. Mitglied einer (Artillerie) Waffenschule'!
