panzer shoulder boards NCO

[LuckyStrike23]

I have the opportunity to buy these boards. They look fine to me, but i want to hear more opinions.
It is possible to estimate the manufacturing year?
Thanks in advance.

IMHO, I believe that these straps are OK. I have a pair of pioneer straps that are made the same way. I think this is type of strap has a thin poor quality, grey tan'ish cotton twill/bias backing material on the lower slip that hasn't been tucked under to prevent the raw edge from coming appart? Even though they look like M36 straps they are fairly late war.

Thank you very much. It is hard to find such black slip on straps. What would be a fair price?

[airborne_steve]

Do you have pictures of the shoulder straps open showing the re-enforcing material?

Sorry, but at the moment not.

But i will buy them and when you are interested i can show you all details you want (in 2 or 3 weeks, unfortunatly not earlier).


PS: The source is a PzRgt11 veterane, i also think they are OK.

A fair price for these boards is around 300 euro's. There are for the black wrap isn't it?

These look correct, but are not as desirable as the standard "issue" textbook type. I have always considered these types private purchase, but am not really sure where they come from. The undersides are a felty boiled wool and these were also made for Luftwaffe, standard bacgecloth M36 boards, etc.
