    A Mysterious Pennant.......

    This is not the first time that I try with your help to recognize to which unit belonged this pennant....I have few infos about it....so I will try to share them with you in order to understand what it is.
    This pennant it's made of heavy oil cloth and seems painted from only one side, it was a gift of a friend of mine who had in his collection for many years but he dosn't remember if he acquired it in France or belgium.The total lenght is about 14".
    Thank you for your comments and suggestions....

    I believe that this is a Luftwaffe squadron emblem, but I don't have access to my reference books right now so can't identify it.

                Hello,
                This is the heraldry of the town of Coburg.

                On November 10, 1934 the city received new arms; divided of gold and black, with over the partition line a sword and a swastika. These arms were used until 1945.

                I think that this is a (bicycle) pennant sold as souvenir in Coburg. SA fight and victory against communists in this town (october 1922) was a major event of the "Kampfzeit".

                Best regards.

                    After more than one year I decided to resume this thread in order to understand if there is any update about this pennant. Definitely, as debertex written, it is related to the coat of arms of the town of Coburg but I wasn't able to find anything related, any suggestion? Unit? Use?Thanks to all, again, for any info...
