Just received this wonderful HJ Trompetenbanner....I think it is a trumpet banner. Main question is the cloth ties normally sewn onto the top of the banner are not present. No sign of them being cut, no sign of them being sewn into the fabric. Note, in one of the photos is some black thread. No pocket along the top. The fringe on three sides is made of metal, aluminum maybe??? Unsure...the fringe is cold to the touch. Measures 22 inches wide by 21 inches tall. A nice clear NSDAP stamp is in the upper left corner. Looks like Bann 374. Might this be the maker or the area / district the Hitler youth were from? The white diamond is sewn on with the Swastika being silk-screened. Nice two-sided with light stains.
