This a fantastic USGI Bring Back service worn condition WWII German National Flag, which has over 40 attached \"Tinnies\", which were small collectors pins from various events and organizations. These range from specific organization events to small animals often distributed to children. There were in fact originally many more attached, however all that remains of some is now the pinback attachment, as the front portion fell off. These were often made from plastic and glued together, so they could be quite delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flag itself measures 17\" in hoist and 26\" in fly, and is double sided with a single piece cotton white circles with dyed black \u003cem\u003eSwasses\u003c\/em\u003e (Hook Crosses) sewn onto both sides. It is now faded, torn, and stained from use, though we do not know if this is from before or after the pins were attached. No maker markings are visible, and there is no provision for hanging the flag, so it was probably one of may small flags distributed and sold to Germans during the pre-war period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe were not able to identify the majority of the tinnies, but we did see a few that we recognize, which include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- A German WWII Army Heer Artillery Miniature Flag tinnie\u003cbr\u003e- A HJ National Youth Organization \u003cstrong\u003e1935 DEUTSCHES JUGENDFEST\u003c\/strong\u003e (German Youth Festival) tinnie.\u003cbr\u003e- A HJ National Youth Organization \u003cstrong\u003e1936 Deutsches Jugendfest\u003c\/strong\u003e (German Youth Festival) tinnie.\u003cbr\u003e- An \u003cstrong\u003eSA-Gruppe Niederrhein\u003c\/strong\u003e June 1938 Competition in Duisberg tinnie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flag is really a fantastic display and research opportunity!!!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe NSDAP, \u003cem\u003eNationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei\u003c\/em\u003e, (National Socialist German Worker’s Party), was originally founded in Munich as the DAP, Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, (German Worker’s Party), on January 5TH 1919.
