Framed International Code of Signals Delta (D) Linen Flag

PRE-ORDER — ESTIMATED TO SHIP FROM AUGUST 20

Framed International Code of Signals Delta (D) maritime signal flag, professionally mounted within a shadow box display. Constructed of alternating yellow and blue vertical linen stripes, the flag retains its original canvas hoist, rope lanyard, and wooden toggle. International Code of Signals flags were widely used aboard naval and merchant vessels to communicate standardized navigational and safety messages before the widespread adoption of radio communications, and they remain an internationally recognized system of maritime signaling today.

When flown alone, the Delta (D) flag means "Keep clear of me; I am maneuvering with difficulty." It warns nearby vessels to maintain a safe distance while the ship is restricted in its ability to maneuver, helping to prevent collisions in confined or busy waterways. Its bold striped design and important role in maritime safety make it an excellent addition to any collection of naval or nautical memorabilia.
