      Quick question

      Sorry if this is a bit OT, but I saw the Finnish table flag and I also saw this flag in Wikipedia:

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Finnische_Legion.svg


      Does anyone know if:
      1. There is a reproduction made of this flag?
      2. The dimensions of this flag?

        The location of the full size, original standard is, as far as I know, not known.

          Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
          I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

            Excellent photo! Thank you.

            It appears there are different versions of this emblem. The one I linked to is made as a flag, while your link appears to be a banner. Your link appears to be quite large...I would guess 4 foot X 4 foot.

            Here is a video of the actual Finnish SS with many pictures of the flag...

            Difficult to see clearly but it appears the SS runes are on BOTH sides of their helmets.

              That was quite common for Germanic volunteers!

                Thanks! I wasn't aware of that.
