Flag Review Patrick Wilson sent me flags for American (45 star), German, Great Britain, Spain and China. The flags are printed on 20# bond paper, easy to cut out and mount for use in games. United States: 45 star flags 1896-1908, 6 National Colors/Mercantile, 6 Jacks, 6 Landing Party, Admiral, Vice Admiral, Rear Admiral (red and white), and Naval Convoy. Imperial German Navy 1880-1918, 6 Imperial Battleflags, 6 Jacks, 2 National Colors/Mercantile, 6 Landing Party flags (4 battleflags and 2 national colors), Admiral, Vize Admiral, Kontre Admiral, Kommodore, and Division Leader. Great Britain 1870-1918, 6 White Ensigns (Battleflags), 6 Jacks, 2 Mercantile (Red Ensigns), 5 Landing Party (3 National Colors and 2 White Ensign), Admiral, Vice Admiral, and Rear Admiral. Royal Spanish Navy 1870-1918, 6 Ensigns, 2 Mercantile, 5 Landing Party, Admiral, Vice or Rear Admiral, and Commodore. Imperial Chinese Navy 1860-1912 (2 pages), 6 Naval Ensigns/National Flag 1872-1890, 6 Jacks 1863-72, 6 Naval Ensign/National Flag 1890-1911, 6 Jacks 1873-1911, 4 Merchant Flags 1903-1912, 1 Imperial Admiral 1860-?, 1 Imperial Commodore 1860-?, 1 Admiral c 1905, 1 Commodore c 1905, Admiral c 1905 (steamer), 1 Admiral c 1905 (sailing ship), 1 Admiral 1905 Northern Fleet, 1 Admiral c 1905 Southern Fleet, 1 Admiral 1900-09, and 1 Commodore 1900-09. All these flags are clear, bright colors, easy to cut and mount. The only problem I had with some of these flags were the diagonal lines that were pixelly.
