Hey everyone, this large party flag is an estate sale piece, priced $1,000 OBO. I have no idea what to offer on this item. It was captured by three veterans in Nuremberg and signed by them. I haven't had an opportunity to look them up to verify their service records yet. But I don't think this item is a fake. Size is up in the air. One person I was working with who is not at the sale told me earlier it's 10'. Another running the sale told me it's 300x300 which I assume to be inches.

IMHO they are asking too much ....unless I'm missing something.

Oh I absolutely agree they are asking too much. They get no commission and there's no reserve on this so I was wondering what would be "fair" since I would keep this for my personal collection.Originally posted by rlimike View PostComment

Mmmm.
300 cm x 300 cm is roughly 10' x 10'
Its multipiece construction which is a plus.
Are both sides signed?
Its a $500 dollar piece at best. Offer them that, then I'll buy it for $600 from you

Based on the images they provided me it appears only the one side is signed, but I could ask. I offered them a bit lower than that because I explained the difficulty in displaying such a piece. This is assuming their dimensions are accurate. I'll see what they come back withOriginally posted by Gino Tampa View PostMmmm.

More photos. No papers, but is signed on both sides. It appears maybe there was a second hook at one point and it got ripped off.Comment

I may be out of touch with the market but if I saw this on a table at a show I would expect to pay $300.Comment

They seem to be open to the $200-300 price point. Will keep you updated. Someone just noted the date on the flag is VE day.Originally posted by CWP View PostComment

I bought a 9 x 9 from The Ruptured Duck for $450, in worse condition, with a printed swastika...it was not scribbled on however.Originally posted by akriener View Post
A decent , if not good buy, the days of finding a flag of that size and provenance for $300 we're 15, 20 years ago.Comment
