WWII German Political Podium Flag -
The National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated NSDAP),
commonly known in English as the Nazi Party,
was a political party in Germany between 1919 and 1945. It was known as the German Workers' Party (DAP) before
the name was changed in 1920.
The party's last leader, Adolf Hitler, was appointed Chancellor of Germany by president Paul von Hindenburg in 1933.
Hitler rapidly established a totalitarian regime known as the Third Reich.
The Nazi party held several rallies and events where Hitler and other speakers would address the crowds.
Not all the events were attended by the Fuhrer, but even the smaller town gatherings required that the
speaker podium be adorned with the swastika.
The item featured here is a German WWII podium flag. It was used at NSDAP events. Of
cotton construction .
Single sided. The perimeter of the banner is adorned with gold color material. A white
circle is placed in the center. A black swastika is in the circle.
This flag does not have any markings.
However, other examples may be marked.
