Hello everyone,
I've been on the hunt for a little while for a flag suitable for inclusion as a backdrop for my display cabinet, which only allows for limited space.
This flag has recently come up for sale with a dealer and on the surface, it seems ideal as it's 35cm2 and presents a good Swastika, that is sewn onto the red banner as a separate white roundel (I've always preferred multi-piece construction over other 'one-piece' examples) for use as a backdrop to the Third Reich-themed shelf in my display.
The seller has posited that this might have once been a vehicle pennant, as there's evidence of it once being mounted to a pole. So, if anyone has seen a similar example, it would be great if this theory could be corroborated/bettered!
Oh and I'm aware that there's staining to one side of the piece, but as this will be positioned at the back of a display shelf, only the more attractive side will ever be seen.
Do let me know your thoughts!
