The design of the camp flag is essentially a smaller version of the standard NSDAP party flag, with a large black Swas (Hook Cross or Swas) in the center of a white circle on a red field. This example looks to be made of linen and cotton, the standard materials for flags of the period. The construction is multi-piece, with a sewn on white circle on one side, with a black swas printed on it.
Condition is very good, with the expected age toning, and a few small stains, as well as an area that looks to possibly have been burned through. Aside from that the red is still vibrant, it it displays very well.
A very nice USGI Captured German flag, ready research and display!
