Hello Carlos:Originally posted by Carlos Quintana View Post
As requested here are some comments. One sided
swastika banner appears to be IMO WW2 period
made, based on material, construction and size.
Have seen these such sell from $200 to $400 USD.
As listed elsewhere online...
"Field and Vehicle Identification Flag (Feld und Fahrzeug
Erkennungsflagge). Swastika vehicle identification flags
were ...used by German tanks and armored cars to alert
the Luftwaffe of their presence as a means to protect
themselves from friendly fire. ...Erkennungsflagge measures
29" x 39" inches (73.5cm x 99cm). ...constructed from red
cotton with a white cotton roundel and a black printed
swastika. ...4 brass plated sheet metal (magnetic) grommets."
Sold $400

Carlos, what I took for shadows in the photo really is extensive soiling now that its in my hands.
Its always a good idea to overdescribe flaws to avoid unhappy customers, a lesson I have learned the hard way.
Kind regards,

Similar but no swastika?
I have a similar sized and color item, but instead of swastika it has the old
German cross similar to the markings on armor. Is this a recognition flag also?
Tnx - HueComment
