Not only fakes but fantasy fakes (meaning no such strap ever existed).

@ Arthur Kullmer:


Wow. Some of the nicest GD boards I ever had seen!

fantastic

The Pz. "musician" straps remind me of the Pz. A.A. "130" straps with oversized numerals that showed some years back in the cord embroidery and execution. Literally "fantastic".

Exactly, and as @pauke noticed, they are out of a series of fake straps. All have attached a Lyra, or an handembroidered number/device on slip on boards.
