(Insignien). A mixed lot of insignia, including:

1. A mis-matched pair of Panzer Troops Officer-grade collar tabs, each constructed of dark green wool with buckram cores and topped by dual silver aluminum wire insignia bisected by rose-pink threaded tresses, both unmarked and measuring 45 mm (w) x 70 mm (l), demonstrating minor to moderate material fatigue, in uniform-removed and very fine condition.

2. A Luftwaffe Gefreiter sleeve insignia, constructed of a dark grey wool felt base, the obverse bearing a silver aluminum wire chevron, unmarked, measuring 85 mm (w) x 70 mm (h), demonstrating minor mothing, in very fine condition.

3. A pair of NSKK Sturmmann-Obertruppführer shoulder boards, each constructed of black wool with rigid card stock cores, trimmed with black piping, and bearing three bands of black threaded and silver aluminum wire piping, the reverse of each retaining Reichszeugmeisterei (RZM) labels bearing maker codes of “A4/23” for a widely-encountered but unidentified manufacturer, both measuring 22 mm (w) x 120 mm (l), one demonstrating minor mothing, in uniform-removed and better than very fine condition.

4. A 90 mm-length of Wehrmacht-issued silver aluminum wire piping, in extremely fine condition.

5. Two Wehrmacht-issue shoulder board pips, in extremely fine condition.
