C-005  Scarce Set of Unissued Slip-On Shoulder Boards for an Army Kavallerie / Aufklärungs (Cavalry / Recon) Private, Set Up for Wear on a Mountain Jacket
One of the more desirable Waffenfarbe (branch colors) and in an interesting configuration! This perfectly matched set of boards were never issued. They are made from a double layer of very slick surfaced, tightly woven of dark field grey cotton – very lightweight - and the same material was used for both upper and undersides (hence double-layer). The tongues are also of this material, and shown wear whatever. The piping along the edges of the boards is in the golden yellow Waffenfarbe (branch color) of Cavalry / Recon Troops. The boards just the right type of skeleton key buttonhole that I like to see. This type of shoulder boards was designed for wear on the mountain jacket. They are in perfect condition.
