phyllene Posted August 27, 2014 #1 Posted August 27, 2014 Wife's uncle brought this home from Italy after WW ll. I can't read Italian so I think it may be a flag or banner from the Italian fascist Black Shirts, but not sure. It measures 24" X 23". The lettering and design is all in gold embossed thread. Any ideas? Greg
USCapturephotos Posted August 27, 2014 #2 Posted August 27, 2014 My buddy reads/speaks Italian so I will ask him tomorrow. What an interesting piece! Paul
gwb123 Posted August 27, 2014 #3 Posted August 27, 2014 I would say that is exactly what that is. But be advised, there fakes and reproductions of these out there.
