Anybody seen this mark
Karl Weber Fahnenfabrik Berlin 1941
Gary
Hello Gary:
From WAF t=1008414, a fake banner ... IMO, as after extensive online search I'm
unable to find anything about this firm, & no
other flag examples from such a Berlin maker.
Tag is dated, which is common on fakes, and
hooks are not type used on period banners &
again are seen on many fantasy fakes. Also
the design using split national emblems would
not be acceptable even if used in Axis friendship. .........OFW

Hellou! My first post. Im interesting to buy nsdap flag, or kriegsflagge. I maybe buy this one, but not sure if it is authentic. I have few photos of it. Can anyone help me with that, is it fake? The stitching is not in line with the other side, thats why im little confused. And i am amateur with flags, so all help is needed. I have only these 4 photos if it.
