This is on Rastibon's Auction currently. Descriptor says:

"Very rare Flieger-HJ trumpet banner. A multi-piece constructed cotton flag. Most probably never used. The original attached three pair of straps don't show any use.
Very nice condition 2. Minor aging.
Size: 50cm x 48cm"

What are they basing this on? There are a few things there that potential bidders should be very wary of IMO.

Here is another alleged "Flieger HJ" flag on the auction. Described as follows:

Flieger-HJ pennant

Very rare Flieger-HJ trumpet banner. A multi-piece constructed cotton flag. Most probably never used. The four original attached loops don't show any use.
Very nice condition 2. Minor aging.
Length: 98cm

Height: 54cm


Again, what are they basing this description on? The blue color? Bidder beware IMO.

Auction houses really are useless sometimes. I guess they rely on the principle that if someone buys it then it is real for the buyer. Hands washed, onto the next auction :angry:

Some Muppet has already bid on this one.
Quite a few fakes and fantasy items at Ratisbones this time around. Expensive ones too, like Schirach`s mates fantasy GPB construction starting at 2 grand.
 
The pieces are sold for a high price.
HJ Pennant + 17,5 % for 482,- €
HJ Trumpet Banner + 17,5 % for 540,- €
A lot of money for fantasy pieces. The poor buyer.
