Very rare 1st pattern Panzer wrapper for a Panzer Oberfeldwebel made in 1938.
The 1st pattern wrapper is constructed with a small collar (2nd pattern has a large collar) and a pink piping around it. The cotton pink pipings to the collar tabs and the collar are absolutely matching. The seam of the machine-attached tabs is exactly the same as the seam of the collar piping. Aluminum skulls.
Early shoulder boards which were sewn in. Usually, this pattern should come with loops for slip-on boards, however, these boards and loops were certainly period time removed after his promotion. You can see a second seem (period time, white, UV light negative thread) to the liner for attaching these Oberfeldwebel boards.
Hand-attached early white-black machine-woven breast eagle. It looks period time attached to us. Fully original attached buttons as well.
Typical grey cotton lining. Size and maker marked as well as "E38" depot marked.
No moth damage. Almost no signs of wear. Very nice condition 2+.
Medium size. Extremely rare!
