Plexiglass M43 shoulder boards...

[Bjorn S]

I just acquired this interesting pair of M43 shoulder boards for a private in the Armoured Corps.
The boards are made from acrylic / plexiglass, which is painted on the reverse and has the buttons and tank insignia added.
The backside is covered with what seems to be artificial leather.

Anyone has an idea of the age of these boards?
(I remember seeing a pair of 'plastic' boards on a Russian forum some time ago, but can't find it back )

I would say early post war to the 1950's in date. I like them.

Nice looking boards!
