Captured German National Flag — Cologne, 7 March 1945

FG-042 Bonner Fahnenfabrik German national flag

🇩🇪 Bonner Fahnenfabrik multi-piece German national flag (centred roundel), likely pre-1935 — captured in Cologne on 7 March 1945; provenance documented (anonymised).

This 93 × 150 cm Bonner Fahnenfabrik flag is a fully multi-piece wool build with a cotton roundel and appliqué device (not print-through). The roundel is geometrically centred—the party/land display layout—rather than the hoist-offset ensign form adopted from 1935, supporting an early–mid 1930s manufacture, likely pre-1935.

Captured in Cologne on 7 March 1945 during urban clearing. Chain of custody is on file (emails + dealer paperwork); names withheld at request.
