Heusden old unofficial flag
by Jarig Bakker, 3 Jun 2003
There was an even older flag, according to Sierksma's Nederlands Vlaggenboek,
1962 [sie62]:
"Two equally wide horizontal stripes of red and yellow.
This flag is not official, but is being used by the citizens. The colors
are derived from those of the municipal arms".
