Soviet War Era Shoulderboards

[Aleksander P]

Hi all,
These shoulderboards are going 260e+. Is that price reasonable anymore? I've never seen war era shoulderboards for sale, but that seems like quite an high price for Soviet shoulderboards. They were brought from the front, by a Finnish vet.

Thanks Dom. ***** for the buyer :/. Do you know where I can see the difference, between post war and war time. I'm really a new person in uniform gear and I've recently got a couple of books about them.

I would be interested in seeing the reverse of these as they are quite strange - sort of similar to 1958 type, but not...

There is an outstanding section here which contains a comprehensive reference on the entire topic of shoulder boards: Ðóññêèé êîëëåêöèîíåð. Âîåííûé Àíòèêâàðèàò. -> Ïîãîíû âîåííîñëóæàùèõ ÐÊÊÀ îáð 1943 ãîäà - authored by the respected Russian collector Alexander Sorokin.
