So a bit of a history lesson, this banner was actually originally going to be the "Victory Banner" for the end of WW2 - however, due to its complexity it was not completed in time which led to Soviet soldiers on the fields creating their own banners from local materials they could find - ultimately creating both the now famous Victory Banner, and also the flag raised over the Reichstag.
I'm really interested in Soviet-era flags and symbology and collect some things like old pins, posters and postcards, and am wondering if replicas were ever created of this flag that could be found and bought somewhere, or if the flag itself was digitized so I could make one from the design? From my limited Russian skills I've only found a handful of images and saw it in a documentary, and only one "official" one was ever made, and there are only a handful of images on the internet of it plus the clips in that video.
Does anyone know if replicas of this banner exist, or a digitized version? Спасибо!
