Hello all,
I just picked up this GDAO poletop and show it for comments and opinions. This organization had to do with the welfare of workers who were injured or hurt in an industrial accident. I think this organization went thru 3 or 4 name changes if I remember correctly.
Any comments or info on the item or the organization is welcome.
thanks
Duzig(Bill)

I can list the initials of the name changes of this organization in order NSAO,GAO,GDAO and DAOV.

GDAO is Gesamtverband Deutscher Arbeitsopfer.

Hello Joe,
Thanks for that info. I knew it had gone thru at least three name changes. Thanks again for that. Now I just gotta save up some money and maybe get a GDAO flag one of these days. In any case thanks for your info
Bill

Interesting and decidedly uncommon poletopper! Thanks for showing. In my experience, you run into the flags of these organizations more by accident than by design!!

Hello,
Doug, thanks for the comment and yes you are probably right regarding coming across the flags. I have seen a few pop up for sale but usually more than I can pay for it. Again thanks for your comment.
Bill
