N030378 DAF "DAOV" FLAG POLE FINIAL.
(DAF Fahnenspitzen)BACKGROUND: With the dissolution of all Free Trade Unions in Germany in May 1933 the Deutsche Arbeitsfront, (German Labor Front), was established to replace the unions and to educate the workers in industry and commerce for smooth and efficient operation of all labor in the Third Reich. In October 1934 the DAF was given official status as a sub-section of the NSDAP and in March 1936 it was recognized as an independent NSDAP affiliated association and granted control of its own monetary budget. The "DAOV" was for DEUTSCHE ARBEITSOPFER VERSORGUNG (German Work Victims Welfare).
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: DAF/DAOV cast alloy construction flag pole finial, 19cm in overall height, which takes the form of the DAF emblem compassing a canted swastika with a hammer and oak leaves. The top "tooth" is slightly bent. Rare. (Ex Philippe Gillain Collection)
