WWII GERMAN HITLER YOUTH DJ FANFARE TRUMPET AND BANNER.
HISTORY
The DJ, “Deutsche Jungvolk” (German Youth), originated in Vienna, Austria in 1929, and was eventually to become the young branch of the HJ; for boys from 10 to 14 years old. The Sig-rune first became associated with the DJ on November 9th 1929, the sixth anniversary of the failed Beer Hall Putsch, when the Gauleiter of Vienna presented them with their first official flag, consisting of a black field with a central, silver Sig-rune. The Sig-rune was afterward adopted as the official emblem of the DJ.
ITEM DESCRIPTION
The banner measure approximately 500mm high x 480mm wide (including fringe). It is a two sided banner that has the single lightning bolt stitched onto the Black background. The length of the fanfare trumpet is 800mm and still has its shoulder strap. This is indeed a rare piece and one for the Hitler Youth collector.
