more about DE streamers ???
Erich:
DE streamers seem to date back to around 1925, as noted by this
early party meeting photo that I have posted below - streamers have
"Deutshland Erwache" on them, which works well to repeat the motto
when the backside of the banner is displayed forward as was done in
this photo on the right. IMO this photo maybe gives some insight into
streamer use, in that they were displayed indoors on the kamphzeit
standards, and likewise the 1934/35 versions had the same purpose,
denoting their rally attendance or to commemorate the official
assumption of state power of the party. I will have to consult my
microfilm (64 reels) of the Stanford University held 1945 Berlin
captured NSDAP Hauptarchieve for maybe more information.
