Many of us collect these pieces and I know that certain members out there have significant collections. So, it makes sense for us to provide an area for discussion here. I myself, have concentrated on the Dunkelblau pre 1910 straps because I enjoy the colours and intricate cyphers. For the most part, I have tried to collect OR's examples to match the regimentally marked helmets in my collection. I will post some pics shortly.......game on gentlemen!
 
Oh, here is my contribution, a pair of Imperial boards from Artillery Regiment #50
 
i just gonna be a viewer /learner in this thread section as i do not collect those schoulderboards

Very cool Gus. I have only seen that stenciled/painted style on one of Tony's straps. I forget the Regt but it was cyphered.
 
I am being a snot Brian, this is a Russian shoulder strap, but it is imperial:)
 
Snot or not Gus...I learned something new because, I have never seen Imperial Russ straps either. So....it'snot a problem! :)
 
I think they were never issued, one of my straps has a flaw in the sewing of the button hole on the attachment strap.
