Framed International Code of Signals Charlie (C) Linen Flag

PRE-ORDER — ESTIMATED TO SHIP FROM SEPTEMBER 10

Framed International Code of Signals Charlie (C) maritime signal flag, professionally mounted within a shadow box display. Constructed of blue, white, red, white, and blue horizontal linen stripes, the flag retains its original canvas hoist, rope lanyard, and wooden toggle. This is an earlier style of the Charlie flag, predating the modern version with a centered blue square on a white field. International Code of Signals flags were widely used aboard naval and merchant vessels to communicate standardized navigational and operational messages before the widespread adoption of radio communications, and they remain an internationally recognized maritime signaling system today.

When flown alone, the Charlie (C) flag means "Yes" or "Affirmative." It is used to convey a positive response to a question or signal and remains one of the most straightforward and recognizable flags within the International Code of Signals. Its historic design and role in maritime communications make it an excellent addition to any collection of naval or nautical memorabilia.
