All sewn Kriegsmarine flag

[ghostcinderella]

Has anyone have any info on those Kriegsmarine flags that were all sewn as in everything was layered and sewn onto the red base.... opposed to the usual printed versions we see in all manner of sizes.

Thanks.

Sewn RKF = See Thread below on Massive Mare Island RKF

See the fairly new thread below about my US Mare Island made RKF from 1936. This flag is all sewn and appliquéd.

Hello gc:
IMO sewn KM flags are rarely encountered, as that
method of construction is not conducive to use in
at sea high wind and/or heavy wet weight stress.
Likewise, sewn together flags are more of a USA
or UK construction method, based on the examples
I've observed and/or owned over several decades.

Thanks. Sorry missed your earlier post below... the sewn RKF is so rare I didn't think to even check if it had been covered previously.

Does that flag have any markings to help identify it? It is an interesting flag!

No markings. None. That's why I was asking everyone. Markings I could google and trace on my own.
