SA Hansa shoulderboard

[luftwaffe blue]

Im managed get my mitts on this Hansa board from Germany.
I am aware regulation boards has 4 strands of twist piping, this one has 6.
I have checked it over and all appears to be correct but if anyone has any reasons why its not correct im open to opinions(if negative please state the reason)
On another note im after a Hessen board if someone has one Sean

Shoulderboard

From the pics, it looks OK to me. IMO, they used 2 mm tab piping instead of the usual 3 mm collar piping. Better pics with more lighting would help, but I still think it's OK .

PS: It appears to have been stored at one time with other shoulderboards together with a rubber band. Too bad they still aren't all together!! Nice shoulderboard!!

I agree, it looks okay to me. If you look at period photos ca. early to mid 30s of SA men, more often than not you'll see some individuals wearing something that was not standard.
