by Zeljko Heimer

Pennant consisting of the naval flag in hoist and red swallowtailed fly.
Ratio 1:5.
Indentation seems to be about 4/3 of hoist.

Masthead pennant

by Zeljko Heimer

Long swallowtailed pennant with the naval flag in hoist and the National tricolor in fly part. The vertical construction seems to be as 1:2:3:2:1 (pennant top to fly top end : fly top end to red stripes: red stripe: red stripe to bottom fly end: bottom fly end to bottom of the flag).
Indentation looks like about 4 hoist sizes.
Overall ratio approximately 1:12.

Colour specifications

The colour approximations given in Album des Pavillons [pay00] are:

• Blue: Pantone Process blue c
• Red: Pantone 1795 c
• Green: Pantone 355 c
• Light blue: Pantone 549 c

I made the above images approximating those colours to closest BS (browser-safe) colour. The two blue shades seem on the screen very similar (though yet clearly different), but the difference is much more observable in printing (an in practice, I guess) since the process blue is more lively than in on-screen look.
