Authentic Letter H Nautical Signal Flag – 72″ x 48″

This Letter H signal flag measures approximately 72″ x 48″ and features the classic red and white split design used in the International Code of Signals. The Letter H signal flag remains in good condition overall and retains strong color throughout. The white section shows visible dirt and discoloration from age and use at sea. However, these signs of use add to the flag’s history and working-life appearance.

In addition, the hoist edge features a rope header with two rope grommets for hanging or display. A hand-marked “H” is still visible on the white header, further connecting this Letter H signal flag to its time aboard a vessel.
