Original era manufacture. The famous opening theme of Beethoven's 5th symphony, adopted by the Allies as a patriotic morale booster early in WWII. Illustrated here using the Morse Code, dot, dot, dot, dash and the letter V for Victory.  White cotton/wool blend bunting flag measuring 31 x 42 inches, with a white canvas hoist and two rope halyards and brass attaching clips. The flag displays considerable wear and use with some scattering of holes and soiling. I believe this is one of the first one of these we have ever offered, truly an iconic symbol of WWII.
