Description

The obverse of the pennant is black and shows the Odal rune in silver; along the hoist the inscription "DJO" and in the fly the inscription "Münster i.W." (i.W. stands for in Westfalen, in Westphalia), both in silver as well. The reverse is divided black over white, provincial colours of East and West Prussia; along the dividing line the inscription "Ost=u=Westpreußen" in gray Gothic letters. Along the hoist there are three small coats-of-arms arranged vertically, from top:

1. a black elk's antler on white: unofficially used coat-of-arms for East Prussia;
2. on red, a golden crown over two golden crosslets: Danzig coat-of-arms with wrongly-coloured crosslets, which should be silver;
3. a black cross on white: unofficially used coat-of-arms for West Prussia, derived from the coat-of-arms of the Teutonic order.
