DAF ALUMINUM FLAG POLE TOP WITH PAPER RZM TRIANGULAR ISSUE TAG.
This flag top finial features the DAF cogwheel and swastika design and the shaft is maker marked, RZM M3/40/39. Attached to the cogwheel is an RZM paper issue tag which is marked on the obverse side, RZM Reichszeugmeisterei der NSDAP, the reverse side is marked Fahnen Spitze and with the RZM code M3/27. It is unusual that the two RZM codes do not match especially as the tag appears to have always been attached to this banner top, there are several possibility's for this, some company's held more than one RZM code, it is also known that some business purchased parts from other company's to complete orders, the other possibility is that an original tag has been applied to an original DAF banner top by a collector in the past but as there is no obvious signs of tampering i doubt this. Priced realistically because of the inconsistency with the RZM codes but the pole top and tag are 100% original.Height 26cm. [Condition: Mint]

Red field with separately applied white circle and black swastika, silver fringe to three sides, the fourth side is fitted with four aluminum suspension rings all of which are RZM marked.The top corner of the flag has a brown cloth box with blue piping for the Ortsgruppe level of political leadership and machine embroidered town name, HALLIG HOOGE. The flag is in over all excellent condition with a few slight age stains and a few moth holes (please see photographs). Hallag Hooge is a very small island of the north cost of Germany in the district of Schleswig Holstein and it is not far from the cost of Denmark. The Island would have had only one NSDAP Ortsgruppe so this would be the only political leaders flag for the island. A rare and unique historical flag and very unusual to find one for an Island, it is certainly the only one i have owned or seen for sale. [Condition: Exc++]
