Single, WH (Heeres) 'cyphered' officers'-type shoulderboard as were intended for usage by a: 'Major eines Panzer-Instandsetzungs-Abtlgs.'
This is a very attractive - regrettably single but nevertheless quite rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard as piped in the neat bright-pink (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Major eines Panzer-Instandsetzungs-Abteilungs' (or: army-major who served within - ie. possibly commanded! - a panzer-repair regiment ie. unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. I deem hardly used nor worn-), condition. The neat shoulderboard - which measures approximately 10 cms. in length - is executed in the 'smooth'-like-, bright-pink-coloured wool (aka: 'moleskin'-wool) and has the (bright) silver-coloured (ie. non 'sub-dued'-type) 'upperdeck' and comes mounted onto its (smaller-sized, officers-pattern) tongue. I deem that this piece was hardly used and it only shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining (as can be noticed on the pictures). The board show a neat (smaller-sized, tarnished golden-toned and I deem zinc-based) Gothic-styled, capital 'I'-cypher period-attached denoting the officers' rank ie. function of a: 'Major eines Panzer-Instandsetzungs-Abteilungs'. The neat device is just minimally tarnished and/or equally stained, simply caused by minimal wear and/or decades of storage. These 'standard-issue'-pattern, officers'-type shoulderboards could be used with the regular-style officers-tunics but could naturally also be worn on the specific, black-woolen 'Panzer' so-called: 'wrap-around'-tunics. Simply a very attractive - and actually rarely encountered! - 'Panzer'-related, officers'-type shoulderboard: only the first such rare single board in this particular rank I have ever encountered ie. offered for sale!
