Re: about your Soviet "Big Star" Flag Pole Tops
by
pjm
Acquired both of these in Germany. The first came directly from a German veteran's estate, the second from a German militaria show and was probably also brought back as a souvenir.
There's a book on the Soviet Army in WW2 with the fiirst one shown on the cover in the background PErhaps someone will recognize it and post a pic and give more info about it.
The second one is interesting because the nozzle has a long screw as an attachment method.
Hello pjm:
Very nice pole tops, IMO they were used on competition award
banners, but were phased out as the star points tended to snag
the flag cloth when on display outside, thus the more common
smooth teardrop pole top design.
