Original German WWII Italian Made NSDAP National Political Banner Flag marked to Naples – 39″ x 64″ Original Items

Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very interesting Italian Made WWII German National Socialist Political banner or possibly flag (Nationalflagge/Parteiflagge 1933-45), which measures a very displayable 39″ x 64″. These could be hung vertically or horizontally, and were displayed on buildings, on podiums during speeches, or sometimes even hung up at camps. It looks to be of all cotton construction with a single piece red field, and is single-sided, with a single piece cotton white circle in the center with a dyed on black Swas (Hook Cross) on each side. It is visible from both sides as there is a hole in the red field, but is reversed when viewed from one side.

There is a circular inspection stamp on the header of the flag, which reads:

MUNICIPIO DI NAPOLI
ECONOMATO

This translates to “City of Naples – Treasurer”, and indicates production in the Italian City for use by Germany. There is no reinforcement on the header, but there are four double hang ties for securing it to a pole or hanging spot. It shows very little wear of any kind, with just a bit of staining and age toning.

In great condition, this would be perfect for a German WWII wall display!

NSDAP Party

The NSDAP, officially the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP), was a far-right political party in Germany active between 1920 and 1945 that created and supported the ideology of N**ism. Its precursor, the German Workers’ Party (Deutsche Arbeiterpartei; DAP), existed from 1919 to 1920. The Party emerged from the extremist German nationalist, racist and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against the communist uprisings in post–World War I Germany. The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism. Initially, N**i political strategy focused on anti–big business, anti‑bourgeois, and anti‑capitalist rhetoric. This was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s the party’s main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti‑Marxist themes.

Ad**f Hi**er, the party’s leader since 1921, was appointed Chancellor of Germany by President Paul von Hindenburg on 30 January 1933. Hitl** rapidly established a totalitarian regime known as the Third Reich. Following the defeat of the Third Reich at the end of World War II in Europe, the party was “declared to be illegal” by the Allied powers, who carried out denazification in the years after the war both in Germany and in territories occupied by NSDAP forces. The use of any symbols associated with the party is now outlawed in many European countries, including Germany and Austria.
