1922 Pattern Red Ensign

[Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP)]

This is a reproduction 1922 Pattern Red Ensign, the unofficial flag of Canada (the 'official' flag being the Union Jack) until 1957, when it was superseded by a modified ensign, which was itself replaced by the current Canadian flag in 1965. This flag is a 3' X 5' reproduction printed on polyester, with the original female harp and green maple leaves, and is the pattern our forefathers fought for and under throughout World War II. This flag is a perfect adornment for your WW2 vehicle, reenactment group or display!

You might be interested to note that in two years, I have sold over 50 of these flags, all over Canada, the United States, Great Britain and Europe. I'm really quite touched by the level of interest! Yours, too, for an exceptional price, details at http://www.mapleleafup.org/kitshop.html ... PayPal accepted at <gwball@sympatico.ca> as well!

Thank you for helping to perpetuate our heritage.

Just wanted to say that I have been flying the Canadian 1922 Pattern Red Ensign at parades and displays down here in the states for the last two years, always draws, respect, comments and often salutes. Usually fly it and a 48 Star US Flag from poles mounted on the front bumpers.

The Ensign is particularly photogenic as it will fly out straight in even a gentle wind.

Thanks for making them available.

Cheers Phil

Hi Geoff

If Phil can fly his flag in the States I want one to fly over Quebec.......

I understand that you will be at CC-3...would it be possible to bring me flag and a few stickers...... for fresh green backs.....

...will arrive late friday afternoon and leave on Sunday..... I may be found under a table by the beer cooler!!!!!

See you then..

Now, I've sold or donated 125 of these, and have more on the way. Unfortunately, my supplier has upped the price, so I've had to, but it's only $2 CAD per flag. I'll update the website page today with suitable recalculations for U.S. and Overseas prices as well.

I remain amazed at the positive reception. Almost all the last 25 went to members of the Canadian Merchant Navy Veterans Association, by word-of-mouth. They tell me more orders are on the way.

It makes me feel damned good!

Just so's you all know ... 3 more Red Ensigns are packaged and ready to make their way, tomorrow, to proud new owners

Geoff, are the kitshop prices current for the flags?
