Klicka på bilden för att förstora
The new German Navy flag was introduced 1935 and this one is the second pattern who was introduced in 1937/38.
The early one has a closed ring around the swastika and the second pattern has open up the ring a bit.
The original term of the Reich service flag was "Dienstflagge der Reichsbehörden zur See" (Service Flag of the Reich Authorities at Sea)
This flag measures 170 * 100 cm and the manufactures name is there but hard to read.
