Please comment.
Yes, these are Fahnenägel [plaques affixed to the poles of carrying flags]. # 2 and # 7 are from craftsmen's associations (respectively, heating & plumbing and mechanics), # 6 is from a music- and singing club [= "M.u.G.V." = "Musik- und Gesangsverein"], the others are from various sports associations ["DT" = "Deutsche Turnerschaft", "T.V." = "Turnverein"].
Traditionally, Fahnennägel are donated/presented/awarded by sponsors, other associations etc. for special occasions, such as anniversaries or other major events.
# 7 says "Gew. v. [= Gewidmet vom] Jasenitzer Turn-Verein e.V. [= eingetragener Verein]" ["Dedicated by the Gymnastics Association of Jasenitz, registered association"]. Jasenitz is the German name for Jasienica, now Poland.
