paulchen Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 A pair of mid to late war shoulder straps which I have had for many years. The piping on one is uneven, and they are not standard factory made, but one of the many tailor made or workshop made examples. Field grey cloth is original material. Button holes are also a bit odd. Can anyone say anything about these? Opinions please! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Andrew Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I'd be a bit concerned about that piping, have you tried the black light test on them? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulchen Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 I do have a black light somewhere if I could find it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Andrew Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 If they glow under black light combined with the odd piping I would be wary of them, are the threads cotton? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
