Not the RED Army Flag.

Listed as 182cm x 87cm, and said to be
"an original ww2 red army flag". IMO a
design not seen in use by ground troops,
but rather at sea. The famous Berlin photo
version was actually made from a Moscow
TASS table cloth for photo propaganda use.

A bit late but to add to the discussion: Period pre 1955 design flags have the sickle reaching past the underside of the star. Post 1955 flags have the tip of the hammer and sickle even with the underside of the star where it indents, or before, with few exceptions. Anything before 1955, including ww2, had the sickle reach past the star, as shown in the German made example and some others in this thread.

If you could draw this in a diagram, it would really help me and other legit collectors out!!! Is this correct (see below) ?

I think you are saying this is post 1955:



But this is pre 1955 based on star/hammer location:
