The WW2 REICHSKRIEGSFLAG or battle flag is one of the most synonymous symbols of the time. Flown from buildings as well as on ships etc. It is one of the most recognised flags available. They came in MANY sizes from the enormous to the very small. They were used by the Wehrmacht and also by the navy who marked them with a little stick-type eagle and swastika stamped into the canvas hoist pocket to the side of the flag. This is a medium sized example measuring 80 x 135cms. These were nearly always for marine use, marked as such and used on smaller ships, torpedo boats and of course U-boats etc. This is a nice, used example, well marked and with the original rope sewn into the hem pocket.
Markings show the size  as well as the type of flag Kr.FL. The fabric is the typical rough sackcloth material. Colours are good.  Very hard to find and an ideal display item as it’s so small.
