Hungary Kadar Era Flag Carrier

[Gordon Craig]

Recently while browsing on Vatera, the Hungarain equivalent of ebay, I came a cross a parade flag carrying strap from the Kadar area. I was sure that I had seen one on display at the Military museum but a quick trip back didn't turn up such a display. I thought that I had seen one from the Rakosi era as well but couldn't find it either. Old age? Anyway, here are some pictures of this device from the Vatera auction. Once it arrives I'll post a photo on a uniform.

Regards,

Gordon
