Description

This Buy it Now auction is for a United States Navy Brass Pole Top for Unit Flags.  This is the metal pole top that would be used on Navy Unit Flags.  It is a Halberd Battle Axe design.  I show a composite set of reference photos that show U.S. Navy flags with Halbred Battle Axe flag pole tops.  Non of the reference photos are offered for sale.  Only the metal pole top part is offered for sale.
This type of item was used from 20th Century to the 21st Century by the U.S. Navy.  They still use these on U.S. Navy Unit Flags.  I believe the Unit Flag Pole Top that is offered for sale here is a Vietnam War era example.  I show a reference photo of it compared to another older WW2 era Navy Unit Flag Pole Top.  The older WW2 era tops have a curved back point.  Again, all that is offered for sale here is one metal Flag Pole Top part.  Only the latter Vietnam War era Unit Flag Pole Top is offered for sale.  The WW2 era Unit Flag Pole Top is not offered for sale.  It is old and in Used Condition with wear damage from use.  There is sun fading, dirt stains, scratches, dents, paint loss, and several missing screws.  It is no longer mounted to a flag pole.  It is no longer in the perfect condition that it once was in the day it was originally manufactured.  It is both damaged from being used, and damaged from being old.  Time slowly destroys old things.  This is a WW2 to Vietnam War era item.  It can be mailed in a USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Envelop.  It is around 13 Inches, by 5 Inches, by 3 Inches in size.  It weighs around 4 Pounds LBS.  The reference photos show Pole Tops with curved back points.  There were differences between manufactures of the pole tops.  This top might be more of a Vietnam War era flag pole top.
