Hauptmann Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hi all,I've had these for over twenty years. They are very similar in size, shape and construction to WWII German tabs but the pips are a mystery to me. I've checked all my references, the net, kept my eye out on Ebay, etc. and have never seen another pair like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 I did however find a pair of shoulder boards on Ebay several months ago with what look like those same pips.I have no idea if there is any connection but hoping it helps.If anyone can shed any light on these, their origin, value, etc. I'd sure appreciate the help. No idea if they are Imperial, Weimar, TR, military, civil or what?Thanks,Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 (edited) Hello Dan,The military official's boards are most likely from the Garnisonverwaltung (light blue underlay). The collar tabs match the description of the tabs for the Litewka, but I don't believe the tabs had pips during the imperial era, at least there is no picture or mention of pips in Kraus.Chip Edited April 20, 2006 by Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
