My source for this image was Smith’s 1982 book
([smi82], the Croatian
edition of the small Smith book). Looking at it again,
indeed the soviet azeri flag has considerably larger
hammer and sickle then other republics.

No hammer, sickle and star on the
reverse side.

According Vexilologie 9-10 [vex]
there were two patterns for
Azerbaijan: pattern of 1952-1956, and pattern after 1956.
Chages are in the size, position and design of the hammer-and-sickle and star.
Consequently, also the flags of the ASSRs within Azerbaijan were
slighty changed in 1956.

The emblem was introduced 1937
(according to Hesmer [hes92])
and used until 27 February 1993, when the current one
was introduced.
