what is the color of the stripes on the epaulets? I suspect dark blue but they look black in these photos

Hi,
The stripes are black,engineers, imo the stripes are black ,my wife says very dark blue the 2 photos to follow show different colours the one with flash makes them look a lighter blue the same as the backing colour to the boards are in normal daylight the backing gets lighter, the other photo imo is closer to the truth and they look black.:confused:

Merdock,
Most likely, this is a post-war set. This model was used up to 1955.
It is purported to be NKVD, but I have some rather serious doubts about that; and the ID is definitely fake.
