I believe it to be real. It’s not a flag but a banner, maybe to be hung from a window on a pole. It almost looks homemade and that’s not a bad thing but the construction doesn’t lean in that direction. Wait for others.

I'm no expert on these, but if genuine it would be a very early one.
Thanks Marty, I was hoping I didn’t get burned on this purchase, I appreciate the input

The roundel was the first thing I noticed looking at the banner, the swastika is off center. I felt comfortable purchasing it due to it’s obvious age. I’ll take some measurements in the morning, forgot to add that, I apologize.
I vote for home made as well - no factory would chop off the end of the arms of the hakenkreuz like that!

Very different construction and size but here is a home made flag with a small roundel as well as a period photo of one as well. Your roundel is of course printed.
