Flags used by the Flag Research Center

[The Flag Research Center flag] image by Clay Moss, July 2018

The Flag Research Center banner emblem was designed by vexillologist-artist Louis Loynes of London. It is a heraldic zephyr consisting of a ship in the form of a swan, a reminder that at a very early date flags flew from ships. Significantly, the ship’s ensign blows forward, whereas the head of the swan looks backward to suggest that to progress in the study of flags, one must examine the past.

The original banner is now part of the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History’s Whitney Smith Flag Research Center Collection at The University of Texas at Austin. In 2014 Dixie Flag Manufacturing Co. made two replicas of the banner for The Flag Research Center. In 2016, The Flag Research Center donated one to NAVA; it is shown above.

Banner

The Flag Research Center logo used on FRC flags was designed by Louis Loynes. On the vertical banner it also appears upright.

This swallow-tailed variant has been shown on the internet for several years. It is not historically correct and never was used at any NAVA function.
