Product Description: This is an exceptional, all-original WWII NSDAP Podium Banner, a striking historical piece that has been well-preserved over time. Measuring 44″ by 36″, this banner is a prime example of the type used at Nazi Party gatherings and, after 1935, as an official German national flag. Crafted from a thin red fabric, the banner retains its vibrant original color, with only minimal fading. The centerpiece features a machine-stitched white roundel with a printed black swastika emblem, a standard design for podium banners of the era. The white fabric has developed natural age toning, adding to its authenticity. A gold-adorned trim elegantly borders the banner, enhancing its visual appeal. The top edge is fitted with three rings, with a thin rope in the center for secure hanging. At the bottom, gold fringe trim provides an added decorative touch. This piece has seen use and exhibits moderate staining and soiling consistent with its age, but remains free of tears or holes. The quality craftsmanship ensures its durability and excellent condition for display. This historically significant WWII NSDAP Podium Banner is a standout addition for collectors of World War II memorabilia. Don’t miss the opportunity to own an authentic artifact from this pivotal era in excellent 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.
