EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF WEHRMACHT OFFICERS CAR PENNANT WITH COVER.

Attached and flown from the front wing of cars etc operated by a senior Wehrmacht officer. These car pendants are triangular and double sided. They feature an outstretched Wehrmacht eagle and swastika in cream cotton, machine sewn to a green cotton background. In nearly all examples I’ve had over the years, they have just been the pennant. All these were actually sealed in a weatherproof cover made of clear celluloid and bound with linen edge and a leather pocket for the nickel pole. These weatherproof covers have usually disintegrated and lost to time, just leaving the cloth pennant.
This one is STILL IN THE ORIGINAL WEATHERPROOF COVER!! The clear celluloid has become brittle over the years and cracked in places, but is 95% complete. Very rare to see.
