Description

An original early 20th century British blue ensign flag on a painted wooden pole with finial. Small holes frequent the flag but overall in good condition, considering its age. The Blue Ensign (dark blue field with the Union Flag in the canton) undefaced is worn by masters of vessels in possession of a warrant issued by the Director of Naval Reserves, and by the members of certain yacht clubs. Such warrants are issued to officers in the active or retired lists of the Royal Naval Reserve and the maritime reserve forces of other Commonwealth realms and territories. Flag Width 270cm x Height 135cm
