Luftwaffe Flak Regiment Schellenbaum Banner
I am very happy to be able to offer this spectacular Luftwaffe Flak Regiment Schellenbaum flag again. I sold this Schellenbaum many yours ago and just recently got it back. The Schellenbaum which means bell tree was a type of standard which hung on the ancient bell instrument carried in front of a marching band during parades. These flags are extremely rare and real ones seldom come up for sale. This one the front bares a high relief bullion luftwaffe eagle on red and white silk. The back has the name flack Regiment 14 1st Abt. in roman numerals. The 64 and two of the roman numeral II have been removed to change it from 64th flak Reg III Abt. to Flak Reg. 14 I Abt. This was frequently done during the period rather then having new ones made. This banner is suspended by bullion braded cords on a bar with silver ends which have darkened to a beautiful blue-gray patina.
