Product Description:  The NSDAP Flag 30″ x 50″ Cut-Off w/ Hooks is a Third Reich–era political textile, presented in excellent overall condition and notable for its practical display modifications. Originally part of a larger banner, the flag has been cut down and now measures approximately 30 by 50 inches, the trimmed end showing evidence of period alteration.

This NSDAP Flag 30″ x 50″ Cut-Off w/ Hooks retains its rope heading, with two metal hooks sewn into the original suspension loop to facilitate mounting. Constructed as a dual-sided banner, it features a single-piece black swastika machine-sewn onto a 22-inch white roundel, demonstrating typical period manufacturing techniques. The textile exhibits minor discoloration, small holes, and areas of fraying along the cut edge, consistent with age and historical use.

Overall, the banner presents as a well-preserved and visually compelling example of National Socialist political display material, retaining strong color and form despite its period modification.

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.
