Russian, Czarist Era Officers Shoulder Boards, Alexandropol Military District

Original era manufacture. Pair of junior officer slip-on style shoulder boards from the Alexandropol Military District. Gold brocade uppers with a thin red silk stripe, each with a very nice gilded brass button bearing the Imperial Eagle. Attached to the tops of the boards are nice quality stamped brass letters, which are secured with thin wire pins. Several of the pins are now missing, and thread has been used to secure the letters.
