Flag manufacture labels

Flag Label Archive – Dating Flags by Manufacturer

This archive presents a growing collection of original flag labels from major manufacturers – starting with Bonner Fahnenfabrik and Annin. More will be added over time.

Each label is dated based on verified examples from historic events (such as D-Day), military service (e.g. battleship usage), manufacturer archives, or trusted private collections like Clarence Rungy’s.

These labels are not speculative. They are cross-checked and double-sourced wherever possible, using stitching types, ink patterns, fonts, and verified provenance. This helps estimate the production period of a flag with reasonable accuracy.
