My fellow collectors ,
Just in today straight out of an old wooden chest that was removed from an attic in Innsbruck...
A very nice uncleaned and unmessed pair of Y straps.
I do not know if these are to be called mid-or latewar issue.
They do not have a date stamp , but are clearly stamped 1/1044/0014
after the letters Nr. that are readable.
The straps are in pristine , unworn condition with only having one
"issue".
It seems that one of the front straps has suffered from being in contact
with something that might have been made out of cloth and therefore might have had a certain amount of moisture in it.
This might have caused the leather to crackle on the black surface.
I took a lot of pics and altered them using a photo program.
Hope you like it still....
Best regards
Bernhard
