Hmm.  Not sure.  Idk it’s US, but I’d have picked it up too if cheap.  I have a habit of doing that.  Neat cap. 

Thanks for the information Leigh! I have over 20 flags, banners and pendants in various sizes. I also have a small rectangular pendant that has the arms individually sewn. The larger banner that I have shown is my favorite just because the arms are individually sewn. It is faded, small holes and some spots of red drip marks...blood? Who knows...

Don   Both Printed (silk screening) and embroidered versions of the NSDAP flag as well as other Third Reich flags existed in the earliest days of the Third Reich. Most of the multipiece flags in which the swastika arms were made of multiple pieces of folded cloth were sewn by master craftsmen and the material was silk and other fabrics. The printed flags were quicker to manufacture and are more commonly found. The embroidered flags of the period if not damaged and fraying will be more valuable in some cases due to the craftsmanship and bullion materials used on them.    Some of the flag manufacturers of the Reich Period also switched from embroidered to printing when materials were harder to obtain.    There are some good flag reference books although they are dated but since no new flag books have been written in a number of years, these books still hold a wealth of information as well as period photos showing some of the flags being made.    Flags and Banners of the Third Reich by A.S. Walker, circa 1973   Flags of the Third Reich by Brian L. Davis, Illustrated by Malcolm McGregor, circa 2000   Flags and Standards of the Third Reich, Army, Navy and Air Force by Brian L Davis, circa 1975   These books as well as many of the Third Reich period magazines such as "Die Wehrmacht"   have some great articles written about the items of war being made and manufactured, one article about flags being made was in such magazine.   Leigh

Hi. Is it possible to identify this as an original issue badge please? Thank you

Here is a link to a sword given to a Mounted Policeman as a Christmas gift.    

Hello! I have an early German banner with the "arms" (?) on the swastika individually sewn. I am guessing very early 30's. What year did the printed version start?

Here are mine.

I like it too, I don't see any issues with it. NIce find  : )

I see what you mean...but I've searched the web and can't find another (even a repro) that looks like this one.

Nice piece.  Rich A. in Pa.

This is a copy as it doesn't match known examples.  The attached photos show two examples the first one some collectors had issues with initially due to the lack of a yellow eye but they are supposedly both genuine.
