Description

Neubecker 1992 [neu92] contains a plate with the flags of Danzig, and here we find a flag for the Senate members at sea: a square, red flag bordered in yellow all around; on the red field, two lions standing on two narrow wavy lines and holding a shield with the crosses and crown.

Size: 85 × 85 cm. Caption: "Wird auf den Fahrzeugen gefesst, auf denen ein Mitglied des Senats dienstliche Fahrten (z.B. zwecks Besuchs fremder Kriegschiffe) unternimmt" i.e. "Shall be hoisted on vehicles when a member of the Senate is on board for an official trip (e.g. in order to visit a foreign warship)".
