Flemish SS schiffchen swastika

[Kurt Meyer]

Hi There,

A friend of mine has the for sale.
Could anyone give me some clear opinions please?
This is not a swastika of a schirmmutze. ( See the picture )

Thank you.

Best Regards,

Kurt.

Hey Kurt,

Looks nice to me, all angles are neat and tight, well finished.
But Maybe there are more Flamish SS collectors out here who could shed some light on the matter

Thank you!

Nope, the flemish is shaped like a diamond.

I disagree with this reply.
The flemish did have a square cross on the side caps.

Cheers,

Kurt

It has to be like the diamond of the HJ. A stretched square. (Een ruit in't Vlaams)

The Flemish swaz (for visorcaps and overseas caps), is elongated/stretched (meaning diamond shaped), this one is clearly square... not sure what it was used for... Nick
