Introduction

Interflug (shortened form of Internationaler Flug, international flight) was founded in 1958 as a second East German airline to operate charter flights, while the Deutsche Lufthansa GmbH der DDR kept operating the regular flights.
Legal litigation started in Bern in 1962 between East and West Germany over the trade mark Lufthansa. The court gave this name to the Federal Republic of Germany which implied that the East German airline had to change its name. This is how Interflug assumed also the regular flights and the East German Lufthansa ceased to exist.

Interflug airline.  See two pages on FOTW-ws, the first one concerning East German Lufthansa and the second, Interflug itself. End of (second) page, Jens writes “end of the seventies it only flew the red logo on a white field” but apparently the reverse colour scheme was used, too – to be honest I have no idea when exactly.
See this image; red field, white logo i.e. stylized aircraft flying to the left within an oval.  Three metal grommets.
Source: German eBay offer no. 260119163152 (end 27 May 2007) put up by “graveroad” who adds that this item came from Leipzig airport.  Dimensions given as 115 cm x 177 cm.
This is an Interflug fan site (in German – very thorough): Have a look at Interflug pennants (including IF that is to say, the agricultural branch).
