A Bunch of Shoulderboards

[wolfeknives]

These shoulderboards and collar tabs have accumulated over years of collecting. My collecting interest is now limited to awards and daggers. It is time to let go of the other stuff. Before I sell these, I would like to make sure that they are original, and would also like to find out what they are. At least I will have learned a little something. I have researched and identified some of the shoulderboards, but there seem to be an endless number of them. I would greatly appreciate any help.

I like the sonderfuhrer slip on! = number 12
Number 4 could be KM and number 5 could be NSKK, its narrow with black farbe!
You covered most other ones with the correct assessment!

#2 is a single tab is for a Luftwaffe Major of Flight/Para.

The snaps on the reverse indicate this was for the white summer uniform The snaps facilitated easy removal of the tabs when the uniform was sent to the cleaners.

Thank you very much for the information , it is very much appreciated. Would #9 be a Majors board as well then? #10 has the same yellow backing, but brown and silver front. Would that be airforce or police?

#9 is Luftwaffe Major of FLight/Para. #8 is Major for Heer Infantry or possibly Luftwaffe HG (noth used the same white underlay and silver braid) If the Silver is a flat or matte finish then it is Heer infantry. If it is shiny then it woulc be dress Heer Major or Luftwaffe Major HG.

Thank you for the help Larry & Gary. #8 does seem be be a little brighter than #9. I now wish I had others to compare to, this is very interesting.
