The Signal and Commercial Flags of St. John’s, Newfoundland c. 1500–c. 1900
Raven: A Journal of Vexillology 7:19-36 (2000)
Abstract
The port city of St. John’s, as the capital of Britain’s oldest colony, developed a strong history of complex and evolving flag use. Narrated by a St. John’s native with original research and detailed flag charts, this paper covers 400 years of flags in service of the city’s commerce.My notes
