Original German WWII Medium Sized NSDAP Pennant With German Imperial Railway Patch – 14″ x 26″ Original Items

Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very good condition WWII German NSDAP Political National Pennant Flag, which measures a very displayable 26 inches long by 14 inches tall. These were used inside buildings, or possibly on podiums during speeches, and in this case possibly a vehicle. It is of all cotton construction, and is single sided with single piece cotton white circle with a black embroidered swas (Hook Crosses or Swass) sewn onto it. These could be attached to ropes, or attached to small poles.

The upper right corner features a “Wheel with superimposed letter R” (Shunting service) patch for the Imperial Railway Service. The patch is in lovely condition with no visible moth nips and almost all of the stitching still strongly attached to the pennant.

Condition is very good, with some small tears and stains. The colors are very well retained, with minimal age toning to the white circle along with some stains, and a vibrant red field.

Comes more than ready to 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.
