NSDAP Flag Banner 36″ x 53″

Product Description: An original NSDAP Flag Banner 36″ x 53″, presenting as an authentic and evocative artifact from the Third Reich period. Constructed of standard red cotton with a dual sided centrally sewn white disc and black swastika emblem, the banner retains its classic proportions and remains a tangible piece of WWII-era visual propaganda.

This example features mounting sleeves at both the top and bottom edges, designed for pole or rod display. Remnants of thread and elastic are present along the edges, suggesting prior mounting or display use. The fabric shows overall sun fading and discoloration, particularly along exposed areas, with wear holes present at both the top and bottom edges—consistent with age and prolonged exposure.

While exhibiting signs of wear, the banner maintains its integrity and offers strong historical value. The NSDAP Flag Banner 36″ x 53″ stands as a compelling addition for collectors of WWII memorabilia or historical textiles, offering both provenance and authenticity in its current, untouched condition.

Historical Description: The red flag with white central disk and black swastika was introduced by Hitler in the 1920s as the flag of the National Socialist political party. In 1933, shortly after the Nazis took power, this party flag was recognized alongside the black-white-red Imperial tricolor as one of Germany’s national flags. In 1935, the use of the tricolor flag was discontinued, and between September 1935 and May 8, 1945, the Nazi party flag was the sole national flag of Germany. From its creation in the 1920s through the end of the war, this swastika flag was made and used in endless variations, from the massive banners hung at Party Day rallies to small pennants, bunting flags, and hand-held paper flags distributed along parade routes. These flags, banners and pennants flew from ships, were hung from official and private buildings, and were displayed outside business and private homes. At the end of WWII, the Allied military governments abolished the use of all Nazi symbols, including the national flag. Most Third Reich era German national flags were simply destroyed.
