Description
Very rare example of a large embroidered eagle as used by the National Socialist German Students’ Union (Nationalsozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund.) The large eagle shows nice period wear and sewing on the edges, the back shows a bukrum stiffener. This eagle would have been removed from a car pennant or even a large flag. Very hard piece of insignia to acquire!
Note – The National Socialist German Students’ Union (Nationalsozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund, abbreviated NSDStB) was founded in 1926 as a division of the Nazi Party with the mission of integrating University-level education and academic life within the framework of the Nazi worldview. Originating in February of 1926, the NSDStB housed its members in so-called Kameradschaftshäusern (Fellowship Houses), and from 1930 on had its members decked out in classic brown shirts with their own distinctive Third Reich period emblems.
