by Elias Granqvist, 9 February 2001
The flag is a banner of the arms;
arms granted in 1884 based on a seal from 1647, revised grant on 23 May 1935.
See also:
Härjedalen was conquered from Norway in 1658, but the arms of Härjedalen was not formaly granted until 1884, based on a seal known to have been in use from 1647.
I have based this image on the image of the county flag of the County of Jamtland made by Mello Luchtenberg.
