Lets show some flags!

This is I believe a vehicle recognition flag, based on its size. Indirect vet purchase. Colors are very bright! Its probably been in a footlocker for most of its life!

markings

It says in German that its been color proof treated and can be washed safely!
I guess that explains the vibrant colors!
Its marked as follows: "PERSISTOL IMPRAGNIERUNG GUT WASCH BESTANDIG"
This treatment also used for water repellency was standard on Waffen SS smocks using the chemical substance called "Persistol" (commercial name).

my meatball flag

Here's my meatbal flag! The edges are folded to make it fit the frame, so its actually bigger than it appears.
