Japanese made Nazi flag ?

[all1knew]

Hello all,

I was told I was a fool for not buying this leather cornered flag as I deemed it a reproduction produced in the 1970's - was I mistaken? I was told this one was authentic because the seller dealt with textiles and was familiar with flags.

Are these actually legit in the eyes of experienced collectors and of WW2 era manufacture?

I was always under the impression these were fake, what's your opinion?

Please let me know either way. Thank you.

Leather reinforced corners are considered by me and everyone else I know (who expressed a preference) to be a sure sign of a 1970's fake.

I agree.

You did well to leave this one William.

Look at the quality ( or rather lack of it ) ...... that is the clincher.
Imagine how long this would last blowing in a strong breeze!!! ( 10 minutes at the most! )

I just saw a legit flag that had a leather piece to secure a metal suspension ring at the top corner on another post here, but didn't look like this.
