FL-51a Excellent Metal NSKK Car Fender Pennant
A fairly large sized pennant, measuring approximately 15.5” from
hoist to the point and about 8.5” from the bottom of the hoist to the top, and
made of a sturdy (but not too heavy) metal. The pennant has a red base with
black borders. The pennant is in fact a heavy, printed decal adhered to the
metal base and sealed with a lacquer of some sort. The NSKK design is rendered
on both sides (disks with a narrow black ring surrounding a silver NSKK eagle
and scroll). The eagle highlights are done in black ink, with the correct
swastika orientation on both sides (not backwards on the reverse side). There is
some minimal yellowing to the white portions of the insignia, a nick or two here
and there, and some light scuffs to the gloss of the black border stripes, but
overall it is a very fine piece. There is a plated, tubular metal clamp affixed
to the top and bottom edges of the hoist, which extend rearward and slide over a
fender staff. One of these is stamped with a RZM mark and the maker’s RZM
code, M3/61 for Max Knoblauch G.m.b.H. What appears to be an original nut and
bolt is seen in one of the brackets. An interesting item in near excellent
condition overall!
