Third Reich Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring Funeral Wreath Sash

The sash is in two pieces, apparently having been cut in half for ease of mailing or transport by the G.I. who brought the sash home as a souvenir. The two pieces of the sash are each 10-5/8 inches wide. The wreath that carried this sash was undoubtedly massive, because one half of the sash is approximately 54 inches long with 1-1/2 inches of gold bullion fringe, the other section of the sash is approximately 94-1/2 inches long plus the fringe.  One section of the sash bears the words “Der Reichsmarschall des Grossdeutschen Reich” (“From the Reich Marshall of the Greater German Reich”). The opposite side of the sash bears a large, embroidered Reich Marshall eagle, measuring approximately 7 inches by 7 inches in size. As noted, the sash is in two sections. There is wear to the lettering on the sash, and some expected fading of the red satin material, but the sash remains exceptionally impressive.
