Summary[edit]

Description
English: Organisationsbuch der N.S.D.A.P., 5th edition of the official Nazi Party (NSDAP) handbook on the party’s organization, paramilitary structure, emblems, uniforms, etc., published in Nazi Germany (The Third Reich) 1938:
  • Plate 24a: Standard of the Leader and National Chancellor Adolf Hitler 1935-1945(German: Tafel 24a: Standarte des Führers)
Wikipedia: Flag of Nazi Germany: Personal standard
The personal standard of Adolf Hitler was designed after Reichspräsident Paul von Hindenburg died on 2 August 1934. Hitler abolished the title Reichspräsident and in its place instituted the title of Führer which henceforth could only be used when referring to him personally. Hitler decided on 19 August 1934 to adopt a standard for himself, which was called "Personal standard for Adolf Hitler as Leader and Chancellor of the German Nation" (also Standarte des Führers und Obersten Befehlshabers der Wehrmacht).
The standard (guidon, vexilloid) was used for all purposes and consisted of a square of red material in a variety of regulated sizes. In the centre of the square was a white disk, containing a garland of gold-coloured oak-leaves. Set on the white disk was a black upright swastika. In each corner of the red field was a gold-coloured eagle emblem: In the upper left and lower right corner it was a "party eagle", whereas it was a "Wehrmacht-eagle" in the upper right and lower left corner. The entire standard was edged on all four sides with a border of black and white bands.
The flag was designed by Hitler personally. It was made in two forms: a normal cloth flag (which flew at the Reichs Chancellery when he was present), and a 'solid' type which was used on his car, at rallies, and other political events. Both types were also used at his residence at Obersalzberg.
The SS-formation LeibstandarteSS Adolf Hitler ("LSSAH") used a variant of the Führerstandarte as their regimental and battalion color that was introduced in September 1940.
