Pennants Centers
Well, I had acquired many years back a lot of what looks like pennant centers with a printed hakenkreuzen. I have always been unsure if these were authentic or not because of the material of the discs. The material is a synthetic one that is not cotton. The material seems to feel like that of some ribbons textured...similar but not the same. Any input would be appreciated...just did not want to condemn them without a proper trial.
Best,

Take a thread and burn it. If it is rayon, it will burn away to ash. A more modern synthetic will burn into a tiny hard plastic ball.

Yes they are printed for certain G. The good news is that they passed the burn test. Also, they passed the black light test. I know that does not make them authentic. Has anyone come across this type of material in period items?
One step closer though !!

I know it's not the most exciting items but curiosity has got the best of me.
That's what keeps us going and interested sometimes !!
