🇳🇱 Modified NSB flag with post-war civilian use

🇳🇱 Modified NSB flag with post-war civilian use
Discovered in a deserted NSB residence in The Hague, this Dutch flag was later altered by the Keuris family after the fall of the collaborationist regime. It now stands as a unique and well-documented example of political neutralization and wartime memory.

This particular flag was originally found in 1944 by P. Keuris during his municipal work with the Evacuation Bureau in The Hague. It reportedly had a light blue stripe — a configuration often associated with the Prinsenvlag used by the NSB and Jeugdstorm. To remove the flag’s affiliation, the light blue stripe was cut off and replaced with a blue-painted cloth. The flag was then taken to Curaçao after the war, returning to the Netherlands years later.

We present this rare and well-documented artifact with full archival context, signed statements, and photographic evidence.
