Heer Assault Gunners EM/NCO's Collar Tabs
The field-grey Sturmartillerie uniform was introduced on May 29th 1940 with the same design and cut of the Black panzer wrap uniform. Along with the field-grey wrap tunic Sturmartillerie personnel wore the unique Panzer collar tabs which utilized the old Prussian "Danziger" style skull and crossbones. The skulls and crossbones were worn through-out the war with minor manufacturing variations.
Matching pair of collar tabs made of field-grey wool with pink rayon waffenfarbe piping and a stamped silver washed zinc Danziger" style skulls and crossbones to each. The skulls and crossbones both feature circular eye and triangular nose cut-outs. The skulls have a subtly pebbled background field and the crossbones extend outwards from either side of each. Original attachment prongs are complete to both. The waffenfarbe edging is visible to the reverse and all mounted on buckram backings.
The pair shows signs of age with color fading to the obverse as well as a nice age and use patina all over. Visable to the edges is the old sewing machine thread used to attached the collar tabs to a stug wrapper. All in all well used pair in still good condition.
Scarce pair in used still good condition!!
