Bob Hudson Posted November 25, 2020 Share #1 Posted November 25, 2020 So far I have found only three references to these online: 66 x 39 inch banners stamped with a seal for MUNICIPIO DI NAPOLI – ECONOMATO” (Town Hall of Naples – Treasurer). There are four ties in nice condition. The banner had a large hole cut in the center and the circle with the swastika was sewn into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Hudson Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted November 25, 2020 I have found some more info on these at https://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/forum/wehrmacht-uniforms-and-equipment/flag-pennant-and-standarte-forum/281630-nsdap-flag-most-unusual-i-have-seen-italy-marked-disk-is-sewn-in-hole-in-field?t=281426 One writer said this is a flag, not a banner, and that Italians had long used ties to attach flags to poles. "Even more coveted Italian Army unit flags also tie to their trooping pole, rather than being nailed to same as the Nazi unit flags were done. Use of flag ties may indicated that the pole was more important than the flag cloth itself, an ancient Roman military tradition " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
